Biography
María Salgado (b. Toro, Zamora, Spain), who since the beginning of her career she worked from within the sources and roots of the most pure popular music. Agapito Marazuela, the big master of Castilian folklore, Agapito Marazuela, revealed to her in Segovia the most authentic traditional interpretation. As a result of his teaching, María made a great record which was pioneer for its time, with songs from the Cancionero de Castilla which had been rescued by Marazuela long time before. In Canciones de amor y trabajo, María Salgado elaborated old melodies and introduced the most modern musical instruments. Despite the use of modern instruments, these vigorous old songs did not loose any of its personality.
