Uxía, ‘the voice of the Atlantic’, much-loved ambassador of Galician music & poetry, lends her powerful, earthy vocals to renew Galician traditional music connecting it with other Atlantic cultures: Galician alalas blend with morna, fado and Brazilian rhythms. She’ll be joined by Brazilian Sérgio Tannus (guitar, viola caipira, Brazilian pandeiro).

Uxía Senlle is one of the most respected and influential musicians from Galicia and regarded as the ‘grande dame’ of Galician music. Her songs have always the presence of traditional music but with a renewed and personal treatment. Among other projects, she is the artistic director and alma mater of the International Lusophone Festival, Cantos na Maré.

This concert is been produced in collaboration with the Office for Cultural and Scientific Affairs, Embassy of Spain in the United Kingdom.
