After the great reception last year, the Mantras Festival returns. The vibrations of these concerts made no one leave the theater indifferent. As we had announced the energy and sensations of the attendees were transformed in some way. And is that the force transmitted by these traditions exceeds everything that a spectator can expect when he goes to see a concert. That is why the Mantras Festival returns, with new proposals and different approaches that go even further.
We inaugurate this edition next Thursday, March 4 with RAVI PRASAD and a show that combines sacred song and dance of the temples of South India, evoking its most sacred and deepest sounds. Ravi Prasad is inspired by hymns, mantras, classical carnatic and indostanic music and popular traditions. Ravi Prasad's collaboration with choreographer and dancer Mónica de la Fuente opens up new spaces that explore the relationship of the movement with music through the languages of classical and contemporary dance in India.
The next day, Friday, March 5, from Mongolia comes one of the most recognized vocalists from Asia, URNA. His concert is something unforgettable and at the same time difficult to describe because he has the ability to communicate with his dynamic, wonderful and very high voice. Those who have seen her define her performance as an almost mystical experience and she explains that she interprets her songs “with all the energy she has and feels as if she was born again after each concert
On Saturday , March 6, SATKIRIN KAUR KHALSA arrives from New York, a great character who has dedicated his life to expanding the consciousness of humanity through music and sound yoga (nothing yoga). Having learned directly from the teachers, their live performances immerse you in a profound experience that connects you with your own spirituality. The dedication and the way in which Satkirin acquired the yogi sciences from his teacher Yogi Bhajan there in the seventies has led him to share his knowledge all over the world.
To close this series of concerts on Sunday, March 7, we will have the privilege of listening to GURBACHAN SINGH SACHDEV, recognized worldwide as a great bansuri master (Indian bamboo flute). His music, considered antidote to stress, is appreciated in a large number of ashrams, meditation centers, spiritual retreat centers, meetings. George Harrison said of him: “We are fortunate to have this excellent musician among us and Ravi Shankar has added: I admire his ability to touch the spirit of the raga that executes, as well as to move the listeners with its classic and pure approach
But this year there will not only be wonderful concerts. There will also be two conferences. On Saturday, March 7, CARLOS FIEL will talk about birth. On Sunday, March 7, it will be the turn for EMILIO FIEL, MIYO, his lecture will turn on death. Born and Died, two fleeting moments in the eternity of our soul journey.
And to finish on Sunday, March 7, before the final concert by the great master Sachdev we want to perform a Meditation for Peace guided by an expert like Gopala. The intellect must stop working to achieve true peace or silence.
