Sacred Wind & Strings – A Live Concert Journey

The Sonic Bridge Between Ancestral Roots and Contemporary Landscapes

With a distinguished career spanning over 20 years, Matías Ceballos is a Chilean-born musician, composer, and educator whose work transcends geographic and cultural boundaries. Currently based in Switzerland following a prolific tenure in New Zealand, Ceballos has established himself as a master of Latin American instrumentation, blending technical rigor with a profound, spiritual approach to sound.

The Artistic Project: "A Latin American Journey"

Matías’s flagship project, "A Latin American Journey," is a nomadic sonic narrative that weaves original compositions with traditional melodies from the Andes, the Caribbean, and Patagonia. His performance is an immersive experience where the virtuosity of the Spanish guitar and the Charango meets the ceremonial pulse of the stomp box.

Atmospheric textures shaped by Andean woodwinds—including Quenas, Quenachos, Tarkas, and Sikus—evoke ancestral landscapes and collective memory. The result is a multicultural landscape that feels both ancient and avant-garde, designed to take the listener on a ritualistic voyage.

A Global Footprint: From the Fringe to the Far East

Matías’s artistry is backed by an extensive international touring history across four continents:

Oceania: A staple of the New Zealand festival circuit, with headline performances at Earth Beat Festival, Resolution, Spirit Festival, Revive, Folk Festival, and the Wellington Summer Festival.

Asia & Australia: Successful tours through Japan (Tokyo, Kyoto, Nagoya, Fukuoka) and major Australian cities including Sydney and Melbourne.

Europe & UK: Performances in London, Liverpool, Switzerland, and Germany, including a featured showcase at the prestigious Edinburgh Festival Fringe in Scotland.

The Americas: Deep roots maintained through performances across Mexico, Argentina, and Chile.

The Value of the Experience

Beyond the stage, Matías is a respected educator and sound-healing facilitator. His work focuses on the transformative power of music as a tool for healing, intercultural integration, and human connection. For festival organizers and curators, a performance by Matías Ceballos offers more than just music—it is a sophisticated, high-energy, and soul-stirring encounter that resonates with diverse, global audiences.
