SINGER AND PERFORMER
Analía Carril
In the world of tango, Analía Carril is a true event, a challenge to the status quo. She is the movement of difference, an inevitable turning point, the commencement of an irreversible process. It is not just her beauty, her light and her clear voice, her perfectly tuned notes and her power: in the words of Troilo, she interprets like no other. Born in a home and neighborhood that exuded tango, the suburban origins of this music flow from her voice and her body. She does not just sing – she bursts in. Her interpretations are unique and precise as she dives into poetry, telling and reflecting a story. From Barcelona, where she now lives, she takes us to the streets of Buenos Aires to a time that she seems to have experienced and lived in herself, a time that she anachronistically carries in her skin and shares with us through various and different authors. Her album, De espina y de jazmín, recorded with exquisite musicians, embraces us with a repertoire in which Gardel, Juárez, Piazzolla, Troilo and others speak to us through her.
Analía Carril rejoices in and suffers through tango, swiftly taking us into those deep or clear waters. She embraces us and opens the door to a world that rings with oblivion and smells of jasmines growing in a backyard of her suburban hometown. Just like Proust’s madeleine cake, Analía’s voice takes us to what can no longer be, but still is. Attending her shows is an invitation to feel melancholy, pain, joy or the fun of milonga. Seeing her perform, as I said, is a fully accomplished event. It is feeling the life that did not come to be, embracing the life that will be and encountering passions that can only be experienced through a genre like tango and through an Argentinian tango singer with such unique attributes living far from her beloved Buenos Aires.
"ENJOY AND SUFFER THE TANGO, AND IT TAKES US TO THOSE DEEP OR CLEAR WATERS WITHOUT MEDIATION."
