C4 Trio

Jorge Glem
Héctor Molina
Edward Ramírez
In Caracas, three young men, cuatristas par excellence unified their talents to create a fantastic trio: C4. With different training formation but with the same interest, they converged to participate in the International Contest La Siembra del Cuatro and with the support of Aquiles Báez who herd them and assure – as a musical producer of their first album, whose name’s C4 TRIO - that they could record singles not that common for an instrument like the cuatro, demonstrating in this way the quality and magisterially of those who dominate it: Jorge Glem (from Cumaná), Héctor Molina (from Mérida) and Edward Ramirez (from Caracas).
C4 TRÍO it’s a big friend party where it is celebrated the fruit - result of this first production, and it is a big party that counts with high quality guests as Aquiles Báez, Serenata Guayanesa, Rafael "Pollo" Brito, Marina Bravo, Zeneida Rodríguez, Adolfo Herrera, Roberto Koch and Edwin Arellano. In its repertory – unusual as they say themselves – they create a diversity of singles walking successfully within the joropo (Venezuelan national dance), the mambo, the dance, the calypso, waltz and Venezuelan merengue, the new way and the jazz, that acquires a new song dimensions with the arrangements of this three musicians. Glem, Ramirez and Molina share their musical worries from long time ago. They are three young men that came together in Caracas –where nowadays they take roots – to give birth a Project that has participated in two editions of the Venezuelan Sounds Festival, organized by the embassy of Venezuela in the United States including concerts in the Bolivar Hall of Washington, Smithsonian Institution Building, the Castle y Kennedy Centre, in the Salisbury International Art Festival 2007 and in the Bolivar Hall of London, in England; besides an intensive activity in the most prestigious halls of Venezuela.
