Correo Aereo (Air Mail) Trio is an award winning acoustic multi-instrumental and vocal Latin/World Music Trio. They perform traditional music of Latin America: especially of Venezuela, Argentina & Mexico, as well as their own original music deeply inspired by swimming and playing in these ancient rivers of traditions while being alive to organic innovation.
Together, Abel Rocha, Madeleine Sosin and Amy Denio combine an array of string, percussive and reed instruments with silken vocal harmonies described as “locked in carnal embrace” by the Austin Chronicle. Their music is richly poly-rhythmic and soulfully melodic. Fiery, haunting, joyful! Abel sings & plays harp, guitar and cuatro. Madeleine sings & plays violin, maracas, bombo and jarana. Amy Denio sings and plays clarinet, and accordion.
Dr. Juan Tony Guzman, Head of the Jazz Dept. at Luther College writes: “Listening to their performance one can unite space and time across cultures.”
Correo Aereo performs at festivals, theaters and music venues throughout the U.S. and abroad. Past venues include; Winnipeg Folk Festival, Austin Music Hall, EMP Seattle, Holland’s Moondive; an international media project/concert produced by VPRO Television-Radio Amsterdam, Seattle International Children’s Festival and the Knitting Factory, NYC.
