Liliana Felipe - Composer, singer, pianist, tanguera, gardener and poet. Cordobesa, descendent of the Comechingones. Liliana Felipe's music is mainly theatrical and cinematographic. Her songs have the quality to be irreverent and profound at the same time. A poet, composer, singer and pianist born in the Argentinean province of Córdoba, Liliana Felipe lived in Mexico since 1976. Her music is a blend of tango and other popular sounds cumbias and traditional Mexican rhythms such as the danzón. In 1990, she opened the Bar Theatre El Hábito and the Theatre of La Capilla with Jesusa Rodríguez spaces devoted to independent culture in Mexico's capital. Well-known actresses, such as Hermanas Aguila, the Danzonera Dimas, Regina Orozco and Chavela Vargas, performed there. And in 2000, these cultural spaces earned her and Rodriguez the Village Voice's Obie Award. Also in that year, Felipe's play, Belén, premiered at the Brava! Theatre in San Francisco, California. On February 14, 2001, she got married to Jesusa Rodríguez, and later that year, performed in La Trastienda, in the PROA Foundation in Buenos Aires and in the Teatro Real in Cordoba. Her musical releases are Liliana 1 (1980), Liliana 2 (1983), Materia de Pescado (1989), Liliana Felipe (1991), Elotitos Tiernos (1992), Lilith el Segundo Fracaso de Dios (1994), La Ley del Amor de Laura Esquivel (1995), Tabaquería treating texts by Fernando Pessoa, Las Horas de Belén recorded in the cloister of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, Mexican Cabaret (2000), Vacas Sagradas (2000) and Trucho (2002). In 2002, Felipe gave a show at Radio Nacional in Córdoba to benefit H.I.J.O.S. (the association that cares for children of the disappeared, people who went missing during Argentina's military dictatorship). In the year 2004, she composed a song with lyrics written in the azteca nahuátl language - a tribute to the influence of Mexican culture and to the irony regarding the use of lunfardo in traditional tango. In 2005, she released a double discs Tan Chidos and Tangachos with tango songs rewritten and performed by the artist along with some originals, such as Muchacho (dedicated to the actor Fernando Pena). Liliana Felipe, one of Latin America's foremost singers and composers, was born in Argentina in the 1950s. She left for Mexico just before the outbreak of the 'Dirty War' (1976), but her sister and brother-in-law were both 'disappeared' victims of the military dicatorship's criminal politics. In Mexico, Liliana went to one of Jesusa Rodriguez's performances. Jesusa, catching a glimpse of Felipe in the audience, remembers saying to herself: "I am going to die with that woman." Since then, Liliana and Jesusa have created two performance spaces, El Cuervo and later El Habito, that they still run. They 'married' in February, 2000. Liliana's music has a wide following in Latin America. She continues to be a powerful presence in Argentina, working with human rights organizations--especially H.I.J.O.S. (the organization of the children of the disappeared).
