Press info:
FINIS TERRAE combines ethnic rhythms from all over the world – especially from Celtic and Latin American cultures – with elements taken from classical music, jazz and the singer-songwriter tradition. Their melodies break with the purism of folk music, while maintaining the essence of the ethnic traditions from which they come, and sounds and styles mix in an eclectic and surprising way. In just one song you can hear the rhythms of milonga, reggae, reel, tango and a classical adagio. In another, a Dixieland swing changes into a Galician muñeira and you can hear – maybe for the first time – a bagpipe playing jazz. The stylistic range of Finis Terrae’s music is immense, but their tone, melodic arrangements and instrumentation make it immediately recognisable.
In four years, Finis Terrae has played all around Spain, in Stratford-upon-Avon, England and also in Philadelphia and New Jersey in the U.S.A., where they were invited to participate in the Northeast American Folk Music and Dance Alliance Showcase Festival in Split Rock, Pennsylvania.
Finis Terrae produced their first CD, with the title Un Milonguero busca asilo en Rusia (A Milonga Player seeks asylum in Russia) in October of 1998 with the record company Sonifolk.
"Gente paseando por la calle" includes Juan Cruz on flamenco guitar, Clare Barwick on viola and the soprano Irene Badiola. It was recorded by Javier Pérez Mejías in Estudio Tritono and he also recorded the interactive track and designed the album cover.
“Gente paseando por la calle” is dedicated to our friend and fellow musician Oscar Grossi, who tragically died before the completion of this recording in which he put so much effort and love. This CD will remain as a tribute to his great talent both as a musician and as a person.

Please note!
Most CDs have been
imported from Europe or Asia.
They are not all
shrink-wrapped, and I am not
going to con you by wrapping them
here just to make you think they
have been sterilized in America.
We guarantee that the CDs and the
contents are all brand new and in
perfect condition. Whenever I
can, I use recycled shipping
materials. They may not look as
pretty on the outside, but they save
money and keep the trash dumps a
little bit emptier.
