BARCELONA, SPAIN, May 15, 2011 (Press-News.org) A very special concert is due to take place in the cloisters of the Pedralbes Monastery in Barcelona entitled East West: Pilgrimages of the Soul.
The show on June 6th 2011 will feature performances by Montserrat Figueras and Lior Elmalich, as well as accompaniment from Hesperion XXI.
In keeping with the show's theme, there will be guest musicians from Armenia, Greece, Turkey and Morocco among others, with poetry and spirituality set to be ongoing themes revisited over the course of the evening.
Adding to the experience will be the location of the gig, as the Pedralbes Monastery is one of the finest examples of Catalan Gothic architecture that Barcelona has to offer.
In a statement, the organisers cited the words of Amin Maalouf, who once described how distant cultures are often much closer than we think.
He said: "To give our disoriented humanity some signs of hope again, we need to move towards a dialogue of the soul."
The concert begins at 21:00 local time and costs EUR25 (GBP21.80).
