Correo Aereo (Spanish for "Air Mail") is a world music duo performing traditional music of Venezuela, Mexico and Argentina. Highly skilled musicians Abel Rocha and Madeleine Sosin combine silken harmonies and an unusual array of instruments with a rich mastery of traditional rhythmic patterns and song. Hailed for their musical and vocal virtuosity and their original interpretations of folkloric music, Correo Aereo takes audiences on an unforgettable journey into the sonic riches of Latin America. Their performances propel audiences into a magical world blended from indigenous rhythms, passionate adventures, nature and the poetry of life and death.

"Musically, a Correo Aereo performance is like stepping through a doorway into another time and place.... Together, their vocal harmonies are locked in carnal embrace, though it's Abel's plaintive cry, sung with an expression that mixes pleasure and pain, that's positively bewitching. As the couple trades longing glances, their sensual yet buoyant music dances gaily about a gently percussive beat and uplifting melodies. It's hard not to lose yourself completely in the quiet passion of this subtly dramatic music... Correo Aereo was conjuring up musical spells...(their) magic was too strong for me. I never had a chance."
