About this event

Spend your lunch break with Sol y Canto, an award winning Pan-Latin ensemble led by Puerto Rican/Argentine singer and percussionist Rosi Amador and New Mexican guitarist and composer Brian Amador.

Featuring Rosi’s crystalline voice and Brian’s lush Spanish guitar and inventive compositions, Sol y Canto is known for making their music accessible to Spanish- and non-Spanish speaking audiences of all ages. Rosi and Brian are joined by cellist/vocalist Queralt Giralt Soler from Barcelona who, along with her spectacular cello playing, adds her voice to the group's intricate vocal harmonies. Queralt Giralt is a cellist, singer, composer and music educator from Catalonia. After graduating with honors in Barcelona with a degree in classical music performance and music education, Queralt came to Boston to study contemporary styles performance and contemporary writing and production at Berklee College of Music.

Sol y Canto’s original songs are distinguished by poetic, often quirky lyrics set in a framework of varied musical styles with surprising twists. They can make you dance, laugh, cry and sigh all in one concert.
