La Fanfarria Del Capitán

The band La Fanfarria del Capitán was born 2004 in Argentina with Victoria Cornejo, Jerónimo Cassagne and Francisco Mercado. Creators of the Latin Fanfare, genre that fuses Balkan folklore with Latin rhythms. From 2011 we began with our international tour, reaching the route up to 7 months a year. In this time the band added to its formation musicians from different countries like Germany, Holland, Greece, Brazil, Spain, Russia, China, Japan and Kasajastán that provided versatility and color to our artistic proposal. Today the Captain’s ship is much more than a band, it’s a way of life! Our mission: Travel around the world sharing and expanding the boundaries of our music! With 4 albums edited, the first “Flowers of the Forest of Bologna” (2007) produced by Matías Cella (Jorge Drexler, Kevin Johansen, among others) and edited with EMI Publishing. “E Viva!” (2012), also by Cella, was released in Austria through Newton Records. “Fanfarria Latina On Tour” (2014) is a live album recorded in Austria and released by Newton Records which records the international tour of 2013. “La Giravida” (2016), produced by Diego Blanco (Los Pericos) and Jerónimo Cassagne. It is a two year project with more than 40 guest musicians from Macedonia, Spain, Germany, Italy, Greece and Argentina; That counts on the stellar participation of the Orkestar Kocani, where we travel specially to record to its studies in Macedonia.
