Mastretta is an orchestra as classic as unclassifiable. At the conduction of his celebrated founder, Nacho Mastretta - composer and clarinet, the band has a unique musicality. The disparity of profiles is also their best asset because the musical approach seeks the collective sound enrichment enhancing the personality of each musician. Mastretta arranges an orchestra of up to10 musicians, (here offered a QUINTET format) who alternate as soloists carrying the weight of a piece jumping from one genre to another with gall and a waste of virtuosity nothing stifled. Between the score and the improvisation the magic of this orchestra is produced: Dance music that invites to the joy.
Popular and contemporary music with a Mediterranean flavor of the background, with
experimental excursions and rocky touches.
El Reino de Veriveri is his latest album. After 10 years always with the same components, Nacho Mastretta has composed to celebrate the occasion several pieces inspired by the own musicians of the orchestra. The different bands formed by some of its members in the last years give title to 6 of the pieces :”Racalmuto”, "Radio Pesquera", "Blue Dog", "El Show de Dodo", "Fetén Fetén" and "Mr. Atomic ".
The album also includes the premiere of the "Suite of the Great Vazquez", which develops the main themes of the soundtrack of the Oscar Aibar film, composed by Nacho Mastretta.
