Lamento with Rocío Márquez
Saturday 21 August 2021 - 9 pm - Basilique Sainte-Marie-Madeleine
The Ensemble Aedes’ guest for this programme is Rocío Márquez, the most famous flamenco cantaora of her generation. Together we explore the most intimate of emotions on a journey which takes us beyond the limitations of culture or genre into a universal human language of cries and prayers.
