“Violeta Parra is a legend. Her life, her work and the person she was, continue to fascinate the public fifty years after her tragic passing. She roamed the country, looking for Chile’s forgotten folk songs, becoming the relentless ambassador of an unpretentious popular culture. Self-taught, she learnt how to sing, to write, to play the harp and the guitar. Her raw voice imprinted the history of song writing in Latin America and beyond: without Violeta, there would be no Joan Baez, no Bob Dylan! She invented and broadcasted what would then revolutionize popular music in the 60s: folk.

Violeta’s songs are of the utmost beauty: Volver a los 17, Según el Favor del Viento … and the international hymn that is Gracias a la Vida today. As the son of Chilean parents, I grew up with Violeta Par- ra’s songs; I know them like the back of my hand, as many other Latin Americans of my generation do. To commemorate the 50 years since her passing, I invited pianist Thomas Enhco, together with other known artists, to share the stage with me and pay a tribute to her life, in songs. His jazzy and poetic arrangements of Run Run se fue pa’l Norte, were for me, as well as for the audience, a true revelation, a moment of intense emotion. Violeta’s songs are eternal, their beauty is not set in stone and through them lives the miracle of incessant renewal. They seem to have been written so as to be reinvented. Today’s generation finds just as much joy as the previous one, when plunging into this intense mu- sic with the freshness of a new perspective. Violeta Meets Jazz is at a crossroads between a musical genius, as pure as a rough diamond, and a delicate yet fantastic universe filled with harmonic imagination. I would like to believe that she would have loved this project.”
