ONLINE CONCERT: The journey of the cello

Music is like books, it can take us anywhere.

This concert is part of a pilot where we try new, lighter ways to do livestreams.

From a meditative walk in Russia, to the colors of Italy, from the story-telling of a biography, to Sami folklore, music carries us into an infinite scale of time and space possibilities, including unknown territories and new -yet to be discovered- landscapes. If we can’t travel much at the moment, the cello can!
