About

The Cantores del Mundo label was created in 2008 by Tita Parra (granddaughter of the iconic folklorist Violeta Parra) for the release of her albums and collaborative projects. The name of the label is a reference to a song by Tita Parra that was recorded in 1978 on the album "Amigos tengo por cientos". The song was titled "A los cantores del mundo" and was dedicated to Victor Jara, a popular singer-songwriter who died during the Chilean dictatorship. The label's first logo was a fragment of a painting by Violeta Parra.

In 2015, Tita Parra entrusted the direction of the label to Arthus Fochi, who in 2016, in collaboration with the producer and pianist Guilherme Marques, began recording and editing their first phonograms independently.

In the same year, they developed the visual identity with the artist Cássia Lyrio, together with a team of resident instrumentalists, forming the basis of the record label.

Cantores del Mundo is inspired by folk and popular music, and its mission as a label is a legacy of the many Latin American artists who have traversed the continent, breaking down borders and bringing people together through music.
