Event Duration: 90 minutes

After successful tours in New South Wales and New Caledonia, Freddy Torrealba returns to Australia, and this time will visit Melbourne.

Born in Santiago Chile, Freddy Torrealba began playing music at the age of three. When he was only 13, Torrealba was already performing Café concerts at the Casa Kamarundi cultural centre alongside well-known musicians such as TIWS, Pancho Caucamán, and Nancy and Felo Torrealba. At 15 he took up, and soon mastered, the charango, a small Andean instrument resembling a mandolin or ukulele, and has since become one of the world's premier charango virtuosos.

At this intimate concert at Bella Union, Freddy will be sharing some of his beautiful work from his four albums, which include: Charango (1989), Charango y Guitarra (1997), Charango al Sur del Charango (2003) and Quiebra dedos (2015)

DOORS OPEN @ 6.00PM
