ABOUT
“For a few years that Ahkorda has been working in the trad/ folk music, in order to preserve the richness of traditional songs and dances. Through a wide collection of themes and traditional dances, in which they introduce new arrangements and sonorities, they try to share and transport their music through all the corners off the world. “
From three friends who joined in a life adventure, Ahkorda was born. A musical group with roots in the center of Portugal. They play a little of everything doing justice to the cultural patchwork in which they grew and evolved musically. With David Carvalhana (Voice, Bouzouki) Rafael Gomes (Bissonor Chromatic Accordion) , Samuel Louro (Percussions) joined by Patrick Ferreira (Clarinet) and Daniel Pereira (Contrabass). Their music is marked by the reinterpretation of tradition, a modern approach to traditional Portuguese and world music that, through each one sensibilities, touches sweetness and violence through instruments that talk, learn and construct new stories and dances. A project that reflects the connection to the land, the tradition, the search and the constant encounter of a cultural entity. A concert where the sharing of ideas and emotions, will walk together with the interchange between traditions, cultures and generations. A moment where tradition and innovation cross paths, through harmonies and dance steps!
