Mediterranean Bagpipes Company
This group links, through music, three Mediterranean regions (Catalonia, Italy and Turkey) by means of each region’s instrument from the bagpipe family: the Catalan sac de gemecs (“bag of moans”) (with Francesc Sans), the Italian zampogna (with Christian di Fiore) and the Turkish tulum (with Filiz Ilkay). The offering is part of the celebration of the 40th anniversary of the revival of the sac de gemecs in Catalonia.
Co-production: FIRA MEDITERRÀNIA MANRESA, FESTIVAL CORNAMUSAM D’OLOT, FESTIVAL FOLK INTERNACIONAL TRADICIONÀRIUS DE BARCELONA, LA MARFÀ - CENTRE DE CREACIÓ MUSICAL DE GIRONA and INSTITUT RAMON LLULL.
