Xulio Lorenzo is a Galician musician and composer born in Louredo (Mos, Pontevedra). As a musician, he founded the group Xabenga Folk besides engaging in some local groups widely recognised in the traditional Galician music (Arume de Guizán, Donicelas), as well as collaborating with many artists. As a composer, he is the author of works for pipe, recorder or whistle; “Muiñeira de Mos” and “Alborada Camiño da Rosa” should have a special emphasis here since they are dedicated to his birthplace, the latter performed with some groups from Mos at the time it was presented.In 2015, he started a new musical adventure in Brazil for a three-month tour and, back in Galicia, he had to pack his luggage again and travel to Italy where he had been invited to go on a tour with the Napolitan group Brigan.At the end of 2015, he decided shape his own compositions together with a team comprised of great musicians: Paco Dicenta (electronic bass), Diego Bea (guitar), Ioana Pérez (violin), Roberto Comesaña (accordion), David Outumuro (drums) and Alberto Vilas (piano). For the recording of his first album, “Cantos da Ialma” (2017), Xulio is honoured with the presence of such international artists as Bieito Romero (Luar na Lubre), Marcos Campos (Crema de Gaita, Riobo), Pedro Fariñas (Trim, Transilvanians), Alberto Vilas (Tangata), Noelia Alvarez Rodríguez-Osorio (Two in the Mirror), Marisé Balado, Francesco Di Cristofaro (Brigan) and the pipe group Xarabal (Vigo).
