This musical adventure takes us onto the Silk Road, following the steps of the celebrated Venetian merchant Marco Polo, who set out for China in the 13th century. The performance is shaped by a dialogue between musical cultures represented by seasoned artists of great virtuosity.
The virtuoso oud player, artistic director and founder member of En Chordais cultural organisation and its music ensemble, and a doctor of Byzantine musicology, the ever impressive Kyriakos Kalaitzidis has now gathered together a group of devoted collaborators, including the Constantinople ensemble and the renowned Greek singer Maria Farantouri, in order to tell the musical tale of one of the defining periods of human history. A sonorous evocation of Marco Polo’s account of his epic voyage and the countries he travelled through, in which each track journeys on into the next, the the fragrant acoustics wafting us along this mellifluous spice route. And as the miles fly by, so time and history discreetly reveal their lessons for humanity.
From the heart of Europe to the Far East, the adventures of Marco Polo conjure up a fascinating era in the history of mankind.
