El devenir del Río is a group of improvisers, composers, and artist friends. It was formed in 2017 and after several presentations in different spaces in Buenos Aires and festivals. Released their first album AMLA in 2018.

In 2018 they developed a new project that consisted of summoning other women to compose music especially for the group and its particular training (voice, tenor saxophone, piano, cello, and double bass). Thus, Invocación is the result of collective work between El Devenir del Río and other composers and improvisers, all of the owners of a vast and substantial journey in both disciplines: Paula Shocron and Jazmín Prodan from Argentina, Amanda Irrazabal (Chile), and Marilyn Crispell (US). The group experimented with different forms of approach with each one of the works, always opening the space to improvisation, allowing themselves to be traversed by the particularities of each music, and also allowing the personality of the group to be captured in each of the pieces.

It should be noted that this album won the second prize for Unpublished Popular Music in the jazz category of the National Fund for the Arts 2020. (Argentina)

The works of the composers invited to the project are: For Gareth poem by the American pianist Marilyn Crispell, La emancipación de la Rosa by the Argentine pianist Paula Shocron, Círculo Secreto by the Argentine singer Jazmín Prodan, Sin Coartar by the Chilean double bass player Amanda Irrazabal and The pieces that belong to the members of the group are: Caza de Brujas written by the Argentine pianist Pía Hernández, Jardín Incierto written by the Argentine saxophonist Camila Nebbia, Dilatar La Horas by the Argentine cellist Violeta García and Costurera written by the Colombian double bass player Diana Arias .

Argentine-based jazz/ creative music quintet. A group of improvisers, composers, and artist friends, El Devenir del Río explores new compositions, the use of extended techniques, free improvisation and guided aural movement.
