"Music my passion"
THE LAST OF THE MOHICANS / "Promenade Live"
“This song makes me cry” The Last of the Mohicans, composed by Trevor Jones and Randy Edelman for the film of the same name, is the signature tune of Alexandro Querevalú. As the heading indicates, this masterpiece not only makes the performer cry but also millions of people all over the world! The sentiments expressed in Alexandro´s interpretation of the music has a uniting effect on the hearts of people of all races, nations, religions and cultures.
Alexandro Querevalú is a brilliant performer, one of the best of his kind, and the one whose popularity has spread more than that of any other performer by means of social networks worldwide to the United States, Europe, Asia, the Arab countries and Australia. This is due to the unique way that he plays these indigenous instruments of both North and South America. The versatility, the eloquence, the sadness and the happiness which he expresses in his musical interpretations are felt deep within the soul, which is why he himself says “this song makes me cry”. |

New CD Colors of the Rainbow
"Cherokee Voices"
New original music with my friend and spoken word artist Janice Kephart just released, Cherokee Voices: A Spoken Soundtrack by the Trail of Tears Women. Persecuted and forced to leave their mountain homes, these women reflect on their fate. Smooth Jazz Magazine says The essential part of a spoken word album is its ability to shift the listener to those places and times that the artist describes. On this project, Janice Kephart is able to do this effortlessly time and time again. It’s a testament to her being able to connect the music with the words, and it will have those looking for a great musical and historical piece, knocking on her door. She could not have done it without the magnificent flutes, rattles, calls and vocals of Alexandro.
