Navigating on the borders of music and history,

Jordi Savall will be exploring the infamous routes of slavery through «the emotion and hope expressed in these songs of survival and resistance, this music of the memory of a long history of unmitigated suffering, in which music became a mainspring of survival while remaining an eternal refuge of peace, consolation and hope.» A tireless defender of human rights, the musician thus reaffirms the universal scope of his art.
