Wakolda
En el verano de 1960, en la desolada región de la Patagonia, un médico alemán (Alex Brendemühl) conoce a una familia argentina y se une a ellos para seguir la ruta del desierto en caravana. La familia hace renacer en él todas sus obsesiones por la pureza y la perfección. En especial Lilith, una niña casi adolescente con un cuerpo demasiado pequeño para su edad. La fascinación es mutua; en pleno despertar sexual, Lilith siente una inquietante atracción por el forastero. Sin conocer la verdadera identidad del alemán, al llegar a Bariloche, Enzo (Diego Peretti) y Eva (Natalia Oreiro) lo aceptan como primer huésped de su hostería, a orillas del lago Nahuel Huapi. Aunque el extraño personaje despierta en los anfitriones cierto recelo, poco a poco se verán seducidos por sus modales, su distinción, su saber científico y su dinero.
The German Doctor (Wakolda)
Ismael Torres is an artist, Singer and songwriter from Rosario, Argentina. He is 32 years old and already has 3 albums, 3 EPs and 1 DVD.
He began his professional career at the age of 16, accompanying with his voice and his guitar artists of the so-called “Trova Rosarina”. At age 18 he released his first solo album “Ciudad Manantial (spring city)”. Today with more than 14 years of experience he has toured multiple cities around the country and the world. He has shared stage and songs with Argentine artists such as León Gieco, Luis Alberto Spinetta, Lito Nebbia, Javier Malosetti, and from other countries: Jaime Ross, Ruben Rada (Uruguay), Ismael Serrano, Pedro Guerra (Spain), Leonel Soto, David Aguilar , Miguel Inzunza (Mexico), Roly Berrío, Augusto Blanca, Vicente Feliú, Amaury Pérez (Cuba) among others.
In 2015, Ismael released his third album titled “Vivo en Cuba (live in Cuba)”
recorded live in the city of Havana and published worldwide by the Mexican label Casete. With this album he toured the stages of Argentina, Cuba, Mexico, USA, Panama, Guatemala, Costa Rica and Uruguay.
In 2016, a tour of Mexico and the USA included concerts such as the “Festi
val Quimera 2016”, the ”Aula Magna Theater of the Civil College“ in Monterrey, the ”RockWood Music Hall“ in New York and the ”Blackerby Recital Hall“ in Austin among many others.
In 2017, the consolidation of Ismael as a Latin American singer-songwriter expanded the horizons of an important tour called “Una sola América 2017 (Only one America 2017)” touring numerous cities in Mexico, Costa Rica, USA, Panama and Guatemala with more than 60 concerts. The closing of the year was marked with the artistic collective “Rosario 50 years of Rock in Castellano” in a memorable concert at the prestigious “Trovafest” festival in the city of Querétaro (Mexico) with more than 5,000 people, a festival that also hosted artists like Ismael Serrano, Armando Manzanero, Pedro Guerra, Amaury Perez, among others.
We can hear Luis A. Spinetta, Fito Paez, Charly Garcia, Sting, John Mayer, and Djavan as his main influences among others.
The essence of Ismael, though, is that he presents his art and talent via the stories in which he immerses us, through the beauty reflected in his music, and by inviting us to join his collective optimism. In his shows, he presents himself with a unique style and warmth.
This character is present whether he is alone on stage with his guitar, or with a powerful band of musicians without losing his essence.
A spirited holiday celebration
A joyful concert experience featuring music from the cathedrals of Mexico and beyond. Fusing Old World Baroque traditions with New World rhythms and dance, these festive works showcase the broad range of cultures and music in the 17th-century Americas. With vocals, percussion and the energy of Mercury, this will truly be a holiday celebration to remember.
This concert is made possible in part by the Houston Endowment and the City of Houston through Houston Arts Alliance.
