Up and rising Venezuelan/Spanish songwriter and singer Grant Torres, after having Googled Tri Nguyen, contacted him to propose a collaboration for his next single. Six months after their first contact, VIENTO came to life. It is the story of travel, of love, of hope, of peace. IA story of communion between people from South America to Europe and to Asia. The Vietnamese dan tranh intertwines with the Spanish guitar, with harmonies from Europe and rhythms from Africa. A story that is sung both in Spanish and Vietnamese!

Great moment last October 2018 with students from the prestigious music school X4M in Torino-Italy. We presented 2 rare instruments: the dan-tranh (Vietnamese zither) and the weissenborn. Some memorable excerpts here here

Last year, Roberto, an outstanding Sardinian/Italian musician, and I, had our albums selected for the first round of the 60th Grammys. We ran into each other’s music, listened, and decided that after the voting season, we would begin working together. It was “music at first sight” for both of us. We’ve just released our first single together, and full album will be out before the end of the year. More to come, more to share with you! Click to listen here!
