This year’s guests include Colombia’s Duo Nuevo Mundo - accordionist Lácides Romero (picture right) and clarinet player Francisco Rivera; Landazábal Luis Eduardo Cortés, from Colombia, an accordionist renowned for playing Latin American rhythms, especially music from Brazil, Chile and Paraguay, and Silvio Prevale (pictured left), from Uruguay.
