Carlos López Puccio in conversation with Álex Grijelmo and Daniel Samper Pizano
A Luthier remembers Les Luthiers
Centro de Convenciones (Auditorio Getsemaní)
Les Luthiers, the famous Argentinian music and comedy group, decided to hang up their instruments in 2023 after 56 years playing on stages around the world. Hundreds of thousands of people applauded them live, and millions more enjoyed their albums, videos and appearances on social media. Carlos López Puccio, one of the original members who was in the group from beginning to end, has accepted Hay Festival’s invitation to recall some of their history and anecdotes. It will be the job of two Luthiers-loving journalists to squeeze information from the musician and comedian: the Spaniard Álex Grijelmoand the Colombian Daniel Samper Pizano, authors of the new and extended edition of the group’s biography: Les Luthiers de la L a la S.
All Sunday 2 February events will be free for people from the department of Bolívar. Complimentary tickets can be requested at the box office of the Hay Festival (Centro de Convenciones) showing your ID, between 27 Janaury and 2 February.
