# Pacho Flores’ ESTIRPE nominated to the Latin Grammy Awards

Pacho Flores’ latest album for Deutsche Grammophon, (https://acmconcerts.com/pacho-flores-presenta-estirpe-nuevo-disco-para-deutsche-grammophon/) (2022), with the Orquesta Sinfónica de Minería and conductor Carlos Miguel Prieto has been nominated to the (https://www.grammy.com/news/2023-latin-grammys-complete-winners-nominees-nominations-list) in three categories: Best Classical Album; Best Classical Contemporary Composition (*Concerto Venezolano* by Paquito D’Rivera) and Best Arrangement (*Crónicas Latinoamericanas* by Daniel Freiberg). In addition to the nominated works by Freiberg and D’Rivera, ESTIRPE also includes compositions by Arturo Márquez, Efraín Oscher and Pacho Flores himself.

Recorded between 3rd and 6th September 2019 at Churubusco Studios in México City with the Orquesta Sinfónica de Minería and producer Ingo Petri, ESTIRPE includes four new concertos for trumpet and orchestra written for Pacho and the wide collection of trumpets, cornets and flugelhorns expressly manufactured for him by STOMVI. For this recording, Pacho used at least a dozen different instruments. The concertos included in ESTIRPE are Concierto de Otoño* by Arturo Márquez, *Concerto Venezolano* by Paquito D’Rivera,* Crónicas Latinoamericanas *by Daniel Freiberg, and Efraín Oscher’s *Concierto Mestizo*, as well as *Morocota*, a short piece by Pacho himself.

*Crónicas Latinoamericanas* competes as an arrangement since it was originally written for Paquito D’Rivera’s clarinet under the commission of the West Deutsche Rundfunk of Cologne, which Freiberg adapted for trumpet; *Concerto Venezolano* and *Concierto de Otoño *are the result of the project of shared commissions for new trumpet concerts that Pacho himself has been promoting; and *Mestizo* was commissioned by the Orquesta Sinfónica Simón Bolívar in 2010. *Mestizo* was the first big concerto for trumpet and orchestra specially written for several instruments of the trumpet family, so that it can be considered the origin of all those new concerts that these composers, along with others such as Roberto Sierra, Christian Lindberg, Gabriela Ortiz, Igmar Alderete, Tuomas Turriago and a new one by Daniel Freiberg as well, have since written for Pacho and his arsenal of instruments in the last years.

This week Pacho Flores makes his debut with the (https://www.ncsymphony.org/events/531/2324-cl01/) under Carlos Miguel Prieto, accompanied by Héctor Molina, interpreter of cuatro venezolano. The program consists of Haydn’s trumpet concerto and the *Concerto Venezolano* by Paquito D’Rivera. Concerts will take place at the Meymandi Concert Hall in Raleigh on Friday 22 and Saturday 23 September at 20:00 hour
