How can we not sing if we have a throat? How can we not make music if we can use our hands and feet? We sing of the rain, the fire, the harvest, birth, death, love, work...

The origin of music is uncertain, but as old as we are; we need music and it is present in the essence of our communities.

November once again dresses up in folk music with this third edition of " Music of Proximity ." It's a tribute to these roots musics, their musicians, and the informants, those elderly people who, like human libraries, store, preserve, and transmit the sounds of yesterday so they can be heard today and be possible tomorrow. Thank you all.

Let the musicians come and let the music play!

• Rodrigo Martinez Duo

Concert

Under the direction of Rodrigo Martínez, this project brings together two musicians with very different styles in a creative exploration of traditional music. Their aim is to develop a repertoire based on pieces from the oral tradition of León, viewed through a more contemporary lens. The result is an open-minded immersion into diverse exploratory spaces, such as improvisation and the deconstruction of traditional musical forms, without sacrificing the beauty of the essence of folklore. Thus, it not only offers a creative perspective on the traditional music of Leon, but also provides it with new discourses and compositional materials.
