If we think of a name that englobes the afropacific musical essence, without much effort we could name Petronio Álvarez, the legendary composer of "Mi Buenaventura". Esteban Copete, his grand-son has his legacy in his blood. Copete comes from Chocó, Colombia and he has received several awards and got recognition in the musical scene. This shows that the influences his grand-father left in him are very important as well as his own talent in the quest for new ways for the musical expressions of the region.

KINTETO PACIFICO was born In 2008. Esteban Copete decides to conform this quintet with the purpose of obtaining an autochthonous sound whilst having a contemporary air and musical integrity between african rhythms, using traditional colombian instruments as marimba de chonta, bombo, cununos, redoblante, platillos de latón and guasá. To this format he added the electroacustic base, guitar and soprano sax as an armonic and melodic complement.
