Cartografía do mar
The flautist from Santiago, André Cebrián, and guitarist Pedro Mateo González present a programme that traces a true sound map of the ocean within the Contemporáneas series.
Works by Leo Brouwer, Alicia Díaz de la Fuente, Toru Takemitsu and Robert Beaser invite us to sail between rivers, seas and legends, between the mythical and the contemporary.
In this musical journey, the flute and the guitar engage in dialogue like two complementary currents: breath and string, air and earth. The melodies flow between tradition and avant-garde, between reality and dreams, turning water into a meeting place of cultures and times.

It has been held in the surroundings of Santiago since the first half of the 19th century: the “Xenerais” (generals) ride on horseback, dressed in colourful military garments similar to those of that time, but they also include purely carnivalesque adornments, which the horses also wear.
The natural region of a Ulla features an original rural carnival, whose record goes back to the mid-19th century.
