“Sincerity, humanity, authenticity, those were my guiding lights while recording ‘Andamios,’” Cepeda said. “I wanted the sound to emerge from silence, as something natural and unforced. Not perfection in a studio sense, but truth in tone, in timing, in feeling. It’s a tribute to memory and identity, and to the invisible threads connecting composers and listeners across time and continents.”

The album includes works ranging from the Spanish romanticism of Albéniz to the French impressionism of Ravel, alongside modern voices from Latin America: Ecuadorian composers Gerardo Guevara and Leonardo Cárdenas, and Argentine legend Astor Piazzolla, with ‘Adiós Nonino’ arranged for solo piano.

Cepeda dedicates the album to the memory of his father, Gonzalo Cepeda, and to the love of his life, while acknowledging the many friends, family members and supporters who made the production possible through grassroots contributions.

“Andamios” has been submitted for consideration at the 2025 Latin Grammy Awards in the categories of album of the year and best classical album.
