Songs from a Golden Age

Work:: Songs from a Golden Age (S01407297973)

Songs from a Golden Age by AURIC reimagines classical tales from the Ibero-American Golden Age, bringing to light marginalised voices, particularly those of women and migrants. This innovative performance delves into themes of separation, identity, hope, and equality, making a profound connection with today's socio-political reality. Artist Paula Rodriguez infuses these classics with fresh vitality through a spoken word performance in both English and Spanish, offering a bilingual experience that bridges cultural gaps. The texts are set to music by composer Arthur Astier, providing a landscape of sound and emotion. Rooted in the rich cultural heritage of the 17th century, Songs from a Golden Age is a mesmerising experience that invites audiences to connect with the profound messages within these tales from a global and inclusive perspective. The show celebrates the enduring relevance of classics and their ability to transcend time, bringing us together today.
