Program
Front man of Nur Camerata, Pedro Burruezo, and his talented musicians, present their new show “Dervishes & Troubadours”Following success at highly acclaimed festivals in Segovia, Cordoba, Madrid, Girona, Ankara, Khartoum, Huesca, Valencia, Algeria, etc. with different formats and shows, front man of Nur Camerata Pedro Burruezo and his talented musicians, present their new show “Dervishes & Troubadours”, which includes pieces from his latest album and from other albums such as “Dervishes & Troubadours”, “Multaqa Antigua Contemporània” and “Misticísssimus” (all released by Satélite K). Songs, verses and litanies that, inspired by al-Andalus and medieval times but from a truly contemporary perspective, pay homage to the great mystics, in particular from Sufism, and from Rumi to Ibn Arabi, not forgetting St John of the Cross, Ramon Llull and St Teresa. They evoke memories of al-Andalus, its Sufís, flamenco aromas, Sephardic sounds, Troubadour songs, and all have a distinctly personal, ancient, unique and yet contemporary perspective. This gentle and very spiritual music touches both body and soul. In Catalan, Spanish, Arabic… Pieces include “La móra d’Aragó”, “Quli”, “La noche”, “Un dia de goig”, “Itimad”, “Medievalia”, “Allahouma”, “Soleá sufí” etc. The concert is deep and yet at the same time reveals Eastern sensuality. This show, in its many formats, has toured Catalonia, Spain and countries including Turkey, Algeria and Sudan.
