Edmar Castaneda / Namo / Winning entry 2011 Young Composer Award

Edmar Castaneda

Rooted in the traditions of his native Colombia, Edmar Castaneda’s music will delight and amaze with almost unbelievable feats of cross-rhythms, layered with chordal nuances rivalling the most celebrated flamenco guitarists. He is a master at realising beautiful complexities of time while skilfully drawing out lush colours and dynamic spirit.
