Malvina Gutierrez and Martín Messina with Alfonso Bekes and Silvia Salomone

It is the first record work of the duo formed by Silvia Salomone and Alfonso Bekes. It was released by the Shagrada Medra label in January 2018.
The album records 5 songs authored by Salomone and 3 by Bekes, along with versions by Ramón Ayala, Chacho Müller, Fernando Cabrera, Daniel Maza and Eduardo Mateo.
The aesthetic proposal is inscribed within the Latin American folk fusion song, with incursions into other styles as well. This is evidenced by the track that gives the album its name: a song that arises from the recreation of the Sonata for violin and piano by César Franck and the music of Claude Debussy, captured in a trio of voice, guitar and cello.

Although some of the tracks highlight the essential sonority of the duo –Salomone's voice and Bekes' guitar–, most of the tracks open the game with the participation of one or more guests, imprinting a characteristic stamp on the atmosphere of each song.

The guest artists who have left their mark on “Flores de la Noche” are:
Carlos “Negro” Aguirre (accordion and flutes), Daniel Maza (bass), Celina Federik (harp and keyboard), Patricia Hein (cello), Luis Medina and Cristian Ávalos (guitars), Lucas Solari (drums), Gonzalo Díaz (percussion) and Maru Figueroa (backing vocals).
The album was recorded at Alfonso Bekes' studio “Panthro Records” and at “Estudio La Playa” by Eduardo Vilar. The mixing and editing were in charge of Yamil Isaac and the mastering is by Gustavo Segal. The cover art is by Adriana Bruselario and the design by Luisina Zitelli.

“Shared Concerts Cycle”
The shared concerts cycle, organized by Martín Messina and Malvina Gutierrez, has been taking place since 2017 in the city of Concordia with the purpose of fostering meetings between musicians from different regions and, above all, generating the possibility that in the city we have the opportunity to enjoy these musicians with great trajectory in our country, not only from the concert but also from the training space for our musicians and students from Concordia.
Have passed through our cycle: Juan Quintero (Tucumán), Rudi Flores and Ernesto Méndez (Corrientes-Paraná), Dedo negro guitar ensemble (Córdoba), Omar Gómez and Julieta Cabrera (La Plata) among others. On this occasion, it will be the presentation of the CD by Alfonso Bekes and Silvia Salomone “Flores de la noche”, an exquisite duo of popular music from Paraná. We look forward to seeing you next Saturday, May 19 at 9:30 PM. At Alberdi 119 Fundación Magma. Advance tickets at the Foundation.
