CLAUDIA ACUÑA

LUNA

“Musica es un viaje con muchas historias contar.”
“Bienvendo a mi historia.”     “LUNA

“Aqui estamos nuevamente: viajando por lugares, contando historias, compartiendo emociones que he recogido en este andar.   Que las canto no solo por el placer de cantar y hacer musica, sino para proclamar que la vida es fuerte y con un espiritu que vuela.   He llamado este viaje Luna.   Luna me ha llevado por lugares dentro de mi, que me han permitido encontrar formas como pintar mis pensamientos e historias, y hacerlos musica.   Yo espero que quien escuche este disco lo haga con el corazon habierto.”
Sinceramente, Claudia

“Music is a journey with many stories to tell.”
“Welcome to my story.”     “LUNA

“Here we are again: traveling to places, telling stories, sharing emotions on this musical journey.   I've chosen these travels, stories and emotions not only for the pleasure of singing, but to proclaim that life is strong and has a spirit that flies.   I call this journey Luna.   Luna took me to a place inside of myself, where I found ways to paint my thoughts and stories, and to make the music.   I hope this recording is received with open hearts by all who listen.”
Sincerely, Claudia
