BÉSAME

“Bésame” is a groundbreaking project conceived by the talented Venezuelan singer Inés María Bravo, celebrating the profound impact of women on the Latin American bolero genre. This multifaceted endeavor encompasses two meticulously curated albums featuring songs either composed by women or immortalized through female voices, paying homage to the rich legacy of feminine artistry in Latin music. The project’s centerpiece is a captivating concert experience that shares its name, offering audiences an immersive journey through the lives and careers of these influential women, bringing their stories and music to life on stage. 

Beyond its musical offerings, “Bésame” extends its reach into educational and cultural realms. The project includes workshops designed for music students and enthusiasts eager to explore their cultural roots and Latin heritage, fostering a deeper appreciation for this timeless genre. Bravo’s vision further expands with plans for a comprehensive book delving into the feminine perspective of bolero in the 20th century, as well as documenting the project’s development process. To complete this cultural tapestry, a documentary is in the works, promising to capture the essence of “Bésame” and its significance in preserving and promoting Latin American musical traditions.

This project featured musical production and arrangements by Latin Grammy-winning maestro William Sigismondi; whose work is combined with the general and executive production of Miguel Silva, to offer bolero lovers a classic and passionate musical jewel.
