Alejo started his musical training under his parents, both guitarists, most particularly his father, Argentine classical guitarist Oscar Rubén de los Reyes. His career as a concert guitarist began at age 11 in his hometown of Chivilcoy (Argentina) and has led him to perform in many cities in Argentina, Spain, Switzerland, and Italy. He studied guitar at the National University for the Arts (Universidad Nacional de Arte, UNA) and the Manuel de Falla Music Conservatory (Conservatorio Superior de Música Manuel de Falla), under María Bello and Jorge Biscardi. In 2011, he was awarded first place in the María Luisa Anido International Guitar Competition, held in San Lorenzo (Argentina).

John Penn, recognized as the best classical and flamenco guitar teacher in the area, is also a well-known performer. He holds a B.A. in music from Rutgers University and studied classical guitar for many years with William Viola.

She became the youngest student at age 13 to attend the prestigious National Musical Academy in Zagreb where she studied with Professor Istvan Romer. Ms. Vidovic’s reputation in Europe led to an invitation to study at the Peabody Conservatory from which she graduated.

Event – Detail

Tata Cedrón y Alejo de los Reyes
FLOR DE LA BANDA ORIENTAL
Jueves 29/05 – 20 Hs.
HASTA TRILCE (Maza 177, CABA)
Artista Invitada: ISOL

ENTRADAS con Descuento por ALTERNATIVA
PROMO LANZAMIENTO: Entrada 12.000 $, Primeras 30 localidades disponibles.

Juan Tata Cedrón presenta, junto a Alejo de los Reyes, “FLOR DE LA BANDA ORIENTAL”, un Disco-Libro que realizaron a Dúo sobre la obra de Osiris Rodríguez Castillos y con Ilustraciones de Isol.

“Osiris Rodriguez Castillos (Montevideo, 1925 -1996) se inscribe en la noble y milenaria tradición del trovador que, con el acompañamiento de su propia guitarra, narró su paisaje y su época en un lenguaje llano y directo, a la vez que de notable profundidad y elaboración estética. Y que como guitarrista, supo recoger aires de su tierra y verterlos en su virtuosa ejecución. En el también asoma ese amor tan particular que los rioplatenses sentimos por la guitarra, instrumento en donde siempre dialogan la cultura popular y la clásica.
Su música se hizo progresivamente reconocida en la Argentina justamente por el respeto y admiración que despertó en sus colegas (Eduardo Falú, Jorge Cafrune, José Larralde y Carlos Di Fulvio, entre otros).
Este trabajo, nacido por el entusiasmo del “Tata” y hecho con el mayor de los respetos y veneración a su música, quiere, sobre todo, ser un homenaje y una reivindicación de su superlativa estatura como autor, compositor e intérprete.” Alejo de los Reyes.

Il vient de Paris pour deux concerts en Suisse, dont un à Fribourg!

Cette fois, il viendra en TRIO, accompagné par la bandonéoniste Carmela Delgado et par Pedro Ratto en guitarrón, une guitare typique en Argentine.
Ils vont vous présenter la musique traditionnelle, surtout de la région de Rio de la Plata.

Carmela et Alejo, en tant que musicienne et musicien, jouent ensemble depuis 2017 – je suis très curieux d’écouter leur nouveau programme!

The vihuela and America
Traditional music from Argentina, Peru and Venezuela and music of the Spanish vihuela players of the 16th century.

In this concert, Alejo de los Reyes, a classical trained and experienced guitarist with a background in early music and a long career as a soloist and accompanist of tango and Argentine popular music, explores the connections between the European music of the 16th and 18th centuries (the years of Spanish colonization in America) and the traditional music of Latin America.
It will be a journey through soundscapes and rhythms that depict regions and countries very distant from each other, but that keep in their DNA the marks of their mixed heritage.

La vihuela y América
Música tradicional de Argentina, Perú y Venezuela y música de los vihuelistas españoles del siglo XVI.

En este concierto Alejo de los Reyes, guitarrista de formación y trayectoria en la música clásica y antigua y de amplio recorrido como solista y acompañante de tango y música popular argentina, explora las conexiones entre la música europea de los siglos XVI y XVIII (los años de la colonización española en América) y la música tradicional de Latinoamérica.
Será un viaje a través de paisajes sonoros y ritmos que representan regiones y países muy distantes entre sí, pero que guardan en su ADN las marcas de su herencia mestiza.

El Taller Latino Americano presents a new edition of its Music Without Borders series with a live performance by Paula & Alejo, a guitar and voice duo. The repertoire includes Tango, Argentine Folklore, and Folk-Rock, offering a journey through Latin American musical traditions.

This event is supported by NYC Cultural Affairs, New York State Council on the Arts, and other local organizations.
