JVTECH MUSIC honors the life and legacy of Maestro Villafuerte Luzardo R.I.P. (1928-2022)
Pentafonia Orchestral Song
In the realm of emotions and music, the essence of Astor Piazzolla’s life and legacy, spanning from 1921 to 1992, deeply resonated with the soul of Julio Villafuerte Vera in 1998. From this profound connection emerged “Pentafonia,” an orchestral masterpiece that weaves together the melancholy of the bandoneon, the grandeur of the orchestra, and the haunting notes of the pentatonic scale prevalent in his ancestral South America. “Pentafonia” mirrors the poignant tapestry of existence, capturing the futility inherent in navigating the dramatic ebb and flow of life. This rendition represents a re-orchestrated version of the original composition, brought to life through the harmonious sounds of passionate musicians worldwide. Julio Villafuerte Vera, hailing from Guayaquil, Ecuador, born in 1955, inherits a musical legacy from his father, the late Julio Villafuerte Luzardo, a renowned Ecuadorian composer celebrated for timeless classics such as “Tu Duda y La Mia” and “Corazon Prisionero.” Through this musical odyssey, “Pentafonia” echoes not only the personal journey of its creator but also the universal symphony of the human experience.
