Featured Song:

“Traigo un canto guardado” (I Carry a Hidden Song) is a quiet, emotional reflection on memory, longing and expression. With music by Pedro Piñal and lyrics by Pedro Rapoula, the song moves like a whispered confession: “I carry a hidden song / Inside my heart / I will sing it to the wind / Like a lament / A voice of solitude.” Giraldo’s delicate interpretation, transforms the piece into a personal meditation— one that speaks softly yet resonates deeply with those who carry unspoken songs of their own.
