Profile

Mexican record company founded in 1982 with the fundamental purpose of recording what is typical of Mexico, covered in principle by the international heritage. LUZAM's current Mexican repertoire, entirely recorded according to the most demanding parameters and with state-of-the-art technology, ranges from contemporary chamber music performed by the Concentus Hungaricus orchestra in Budapest, to waltzes from 1900, with the Latin American Quartet; from salon pieces that Mexican grandparents danced, to the street testimony of Mexico City; from the candid waltzes for piano of the 19th century, by authors little less than anonymous, to the nationalist avant-garde of the keyboard, which at the time could be Chávez and Moncayo, and from there to the music of blackness represented in the African, Cuban essence and Veracruzana of percussions, singing and the flute.
