Global Spring: Javier Navarro Lara
CAMALEÓN
The concert has a limited number of seats, and they will be filled on a first‑come, first‑served basis.
The debut performance as a lead artist of the Chilean bassist Javier Navarro Lara is less of a concert and more of a metamorphosis. Having spent years blending into the diverse hues of the global music palette, Javier now steps forward to reveal his own colours.
Much like the chameleon creature itself, the music possesses a 360-degree vision, looking back at tradition while scanning a turbulent future. The performance is a canvas with high-contrast pigments: from the vibrant saturation of celebration to the muted, earthy tones of the harsh present.
