ALQUIMIA 

"Angaelic Voices" 

(2003)

Alquimia is a composer and singer who has always stood out for the innovation and originality of her artistic approaches. She already amazed the music world with  "A Separate Reality", where she explored the musical roots of Mexico, her homeland, with an approach near to Space Sequencer Music and classical symphonism. In this occasion, she offers us a journey through the cultural roots of the United Kingdom, her land of adoption, from a side nearer to New Instrumental Music, and giving more protagonism to her warm voice. The music in "Angaelic Voices", as the title suggests, presents Gaelic influences, and has a certain angelical air, magic, as if it were from a fairy tale. Alquimia sings here in several languages, including Gaelic, English, Latin and Catalan, and besides, she records her vocals in different configurations so as to create choruses and other often fascinating effects. In conclusion, this is an album that will no doubt increase the reputation of this artist of an exquisite sensitivity.
