PROGRAMME CHANGE * Orquestra Àrab de Barcelona Replaces Sidestepper

The showcase of Sidestepper (Colombia) on Saturday, 1 November 1:15 - 2:00 on Plaza de España: Pavilion 1 was cancelled and will be replaced by

Orquestra Àrab de Barcelona (Morocco/Greece/Spain)

Music of the new Spain… or, should that be the old Spain? Meet at the Mediterranean crossroads of Morocco, Spain and the Arab world, all filtered through the sensibilities of a dynamic group of musicians living in Barcelona. Eastern classical music, spiritual songs, Gnaoua, Andalusí, Chaâbí and Arabian traditional - all come from the Arabian territories and the North of Africa.
