The Group " The Saga " was born at the end of the year 1999 integrated by Eloy Alquinta in alt saxo , Michael Jiménez in electrical guitar, Francisco Bascuñán in bass guitar and Juan Antonio Sepúlveda in drums and percussions.
What in a beginning started as a workshop of jazz, in the surroundings of the Central Vega, met enriched with the incorporation of Chilean and Latin-American music to the digest. This communion of energies evolved towards a concept of instrumental music, which fuses rhythmic elements of these lands with harmonic modern elements, what met formed on the disc"Calienta Oreja" ( Warms Ear ), recorded in the winter of the year 2001 and financed by Fondart.
We must be grateful for the participation of the "Gato" Alquinta (in the theme Camino Lunar), of Juan Pablo Bosco, Ankatu Alquinta and Guillermo Pinto.
