Our first concert of the fiscal year with the duo “Encuentro de Dos Mundos”: soprano Belem Abraham and guitarist Sebastián Molina from Valdivia. Since May 2011 they have performed in various concert halls in Santiago and Valdivia, embarking on a tour called “Encuentro de Dos Mundos” (Meeting of Two Worlds) throughout the Metropolitan Region. In 2012, they participated in the “Entrecuerdas” International Guitar Festival and also recorded for the program “Jóvenes Talentos del Sur” (Young Talents of the South) on the regional television channel ATV.
The first part of the program takes us on a journey through Spain from the 18th century to well into the 20th century. The second part of the concert features music by 20th-century Chilean composers.
