Niyireth Alarcón, born in Garzón, department of Huila in southern Colombia, she is a mezzosoprano with a warm voice and first-class singing technique. She studied music at the Conservatorio de Neiva, Conservatorio del Tolima and the Conservatorio Nacional y Escuela Superior de Arte of the University INCCA of Colombia. Her singing teachers were Fabio Buitrago, Esther de Rojas, Ana Saturia Franco, Rocío Ríos, María Pardo and Alexander Cuesta. She also studied theatre, body expression and dancing with private teachers.

In over twelve years of continuously working with Colombian music of the
Andes, including conscientious musical training and consistent contact with
artists, composers and instrumentalists, Niyireth has made her contribution
to this musical genre by taking its singing to new levels, seeking to bring this
genre closer to the Latin American singing movement.
