La Chica & El Duende Orchestra

he unconventional orchestra Los Duendes emerges and seizes the moment, guided by the captivating compositions of El Duende. La Chica’s voice then transforms into a transcendent collective force—an unfolding, a (re)birth to be experienced in real time.

La Chica and El Duende first crossed paths in childhood. An invisible bond would unite them for life: they shared the same piano teacher, who left an indelible mark on them. She passed away in 2019 but had already revealed to them the path of universal creation—free from aesthetic boundaries—imbued with a disconcerting wisdom.

The fusion of their two worlds is absolute, even mesmerizing. It intertwines the fates of two souls laid bare, exalted by the breath of life and the grandeur of sound.
