A journey through music and words
"On this shared journey, we navigate through cities, fostering interculturality, and getting closer to ourselves through the history of poetry and music. We become heirs of the best past to gaze hopefully into the future. We start from melancholy to rescue the emotion of hope."
Luís Garcia Montero
