A lifelong champion of his home town of Santiago, Chilean vocalist and instrumentalist Patricio Anabalon has spent close to half a century perfecting his musical craft. Having performed around the world from the Americas to Australia, and just about everywhere in between, his reputation as a virtuoso precedes him with an impressive body of work spanning a dozen full-length albums. As he presses on, determined to fill the world with the music he feels in his heart, he celebrates the release of his latest single “Danza.” A deeply personal and sentimental recording, he gives his audience a true glimpse into the deepest corners of his mind with his truly emotional delivery.
The piece begins with the soft sound of an acoustic guitar, strumming in a classical melodic rhythm that quickly grows in intensity and complexity in its progression. Starting from a pensive and hypnotic state of flow, the guitar plays in harmonic cords that allow the listener to sink deeply into a sense of calm before the end of the introductory verse.
As the artist’s vocals appear and begin the narrative of the story, he further builds on the emotionality of the tune. Beginning at the upper end of his vocal register, often switching over into a crisp and flowing falsetto, his delivery proves immaculate in the context of his musical worldbuilding.
Through his work, Anabalon’s dedication to his work proves further undeniable with every note he plays. As he continues to build his legacy with every release, fans can only wait with anticipation to see what could possibly be next for this world renowned artist.
