Hai cercato: Exhalación
Exhalación / 2018
We come to the world with an exhalation and we leave it with another one. Everything in between is a frenetic, shuddering sigh, a brief transit in the act of living. It is a casual coincidence that the union of two cells, should face a final consequence, death. "Who would be born must first destroy a world" (Hermann Hesse)
Exhalación: vida y muerte de De La Puríssima / 2019
The duo made up of musician and actress Julia de Castro and double bass player Miguel Rodrigáñez thus premieres their latest show, Exhalación: vida y muerte de De La Puríssima. With it, they intend to put an end to the ten-year revolution of EL CUPLÉ this scenic musical genre, which the singular tandem has merged with jazz, cumbia and electronics on stages around the world. Show nominated for the Premios Valle Inclán. As the duo explains, De La Puríssima was born in 2009 “as a transit project, in which music was the most direct and ritualistic medium from which to raise core issues such as sex, bullfighting, folklore or religion”. Now, a decade later, it is time to remove the peineta and celebrate the end of a stage in which the provocative lyrics by Julia de Castro have traveled through numerous audiences to bring up to date a genre that was in the forgetfulness of national folklore, the cuplé.
