Vilca, the Magic of Silence

Original title: “Vilca, la magia del silencio”

Ricardo Vilca was one of the most influential artists of the Argentine Northwest in the last decades. However, for years, his talent and musical works were hidden from the general public, remaining where they belong, protected in the Quebrada de Humahuaca mountain valley.

By a twist of fate, his songs reached the country’s capital in recent years (sung by famous musicians like León Gieco, Divididos and Skay Beilinson) as well as other remote corners of the planet such as Kosovo and Madagascar.

Including unreleased and exclusive material, “Vilca, the Magic of Silence” explores his history while paying homage to the musician in an attempt to understand the harmonious convergence of Andean beats, classical music and nature, which he developed in his work.
