The Alchemy of the elements: A mystical journey with Queimada This creative Project will try to merge music with a medieval tradition from Galicia, a region of Spain. This tradition is the "Queimada". It was an ancient ritual to expel witches and spells, which at that time were believed to be the cause of pandemics or plagues.
This creative project aims to have a multidisciplinary approach, bringing together dance, music and performance with its main focus on the incantation of the "Queimada". The performance, together with the music, will be in charge of capturing the elements, such as fire, which is a main element in this incantation.
