This Friday, ‘Crisol’, the first album by Badajoz María Burguillos, goes on sale that one day later he will act as opening act for Marta Sánchez and Pancho Céspedes in the concert that both will give in Badajoz within the framework of the Badajoz Suena Festival, a week that also coincides with the launch of a new video book with the theme ‘We could do it better’, a plea in favor of the environment and a complaint against how badly we humans treat nature. “We are arrogance, we pretend that everything is going well, one mistake after another and the fault, as always, is never anyone’s”, sings in the aforementioned song this Extremadura resident in Switzerland since 2012, although always with one foot in Spain, where Sonogrand Music reports that he continues to perform concerts and appear on television.
‘We could do better’ arises after becoming aware of “our devastating impact on nature”, speaking the song of the “destructive and self-destructive effect of our actions” while warning us that “radical change is necessary.” In the video clip, a messenger in time shows the degradation of the planet, turned into an uninhabitable place full of garbage, although she also transmits a message of hope and confidence with the last image: a green forest with a stream. He also has a version in Italian ‘Potremmo fare di piu’, a language he speaks, because in Italy he has performed galas and concerts and lived in Rome and Milan
This Saturday will be the opening act for Marta Sánchez and Pancho Céspedes in the concert they will give in the framework of the Badajoz Fair
His first record
On ‘Crisol’ remember that it is the first album by María Burguillos, in which she proposes a bridge between Spanish and Portuguese music, it is made up of a variety of styles and sounds that are integrated, says the record company, “like a melting pot, resulting in a homogeneous whole ”, and in which one can find genres as diverse and far from each other as pop, bossa nova, classical, rock and tango, with“ World music the style that defines it the most ”.
All the songs have been composed by the Portuguese producer and composer Ménito Ramos, but there are also some by María Burguillos, who in an interview with this newspaper in January of this year regarding the launch of her second single ‘Cada día’ (the first was’ Parecer y ser ‘and the third is’ We could do better ‘), assured that “Music is the soundtrack of life”, music being the channel through which he expresses his feelings and emotions, although he also likes to write. Not in vain she grew up in a family environment surrounded by music, her father as a flamenco singer, and her mother, who awakened in her a taste for the copla, to which we must add her sister Isabel who is also a professional singer and took this year his first album.
This week also presents the video for the song ‘We could do it better’, a plea in favor of the environment, speaking the song of the “destructive effect of our actions”
‘Crisol’ has a very careful production, which combines recordings of musicians in the studio with electronic instrumentation techniques, which contributes to creating a “homogeneous” album.
Passionate about fashion, a world in which she has worked as an advertising model and has won several beauty contests, she stands out for having a versatile voice, which has also allowed her to enter the lyrical genre thanks to her studies in vocal technique and interpretation, María reiterates that “music is the soundtrack of life, my passion, since it allows me to feel and express all kinds of emotions, such as joy and hope, but also melancholy or nostalgia.”
