Guataca, the music platform that drives emerging talent, celebrates its first decade. The story is told in the book 10 years of pure Guataca , written and compiled by Gerardo Guarache Ocque and Juan Luis Landaeta and prefaced by the speaker and journalist César Miguel Rondón , who, together with Ernesto Rangel , will make the official presentation this June 27 at the Altamira Books bookstore in Coral Gables, Miami .

From the encounter between the teacher Aquiles Báez -guitarist, composer and producer- and Ernesto Rangel – enthusiastic Venezuelan music entrepreneur – the initiative emerged to generate a platform to support the emerging Venezuelan musical talent, especially that which makes fusion from the root traditional. The platform evolved to produce a showcase of concerts and grew to such a point that, more than a decade after its creation, it now operates in Caracas and Lechería (Venezuela), and also in Madrid, Barcelona, Panama, Miami and New York . Recently, cycles were activated in Houston and Orlando .

The publication recounts the first decade of achievements and offers a photographic record of the work of the platform, which currently generates about 200 concerts a year, guaranteeing high production standards and sophistication in the curatorship of the artistic proposal, putting the emphasis on inspired proposals in the traditional root; but without dogmatic moods, with the door ajar for jazz and fusion fusion, bossa, blues and Latin American and American folklore.
