DESCRIPTION:
C4 Trío performing April 20th, 2012 live at Americas Society.

Founded by Jorge Glem, Héctor Molina, and Edward Ramírez, C4 Trío is composed of three virtuosos of the cuatro, a guitar-like instrument typical of the folk music of Venezuela. After performing individually in 2005 at the main international cuatro festival in Caracas, the musicians decided to establish this unusual ensemble and combine their familiarity with traditional Venezuelan music with a contemporary sensibility. They were joined by bassist Rodner Padilla in 2009. C4 has collaborated with leading Venezuelan musicians, including Aquiles Báez, Serenata Guayanesa, and Roberto Koch. They released two CDs and reached double gold certification in Venezuela. They have appeared in Brazil, Venezuela, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
