Fundación Mediterráneo announces the third edition of the Sonidos Globales cycle, a celebration of world music that gathers a remarkable lineup in January and February 2023. The program features English rock influences and the Ethiopian master Mulatu Astatke, expanding this year to include the Foundation’s venues in Alicante and Murcia for the first time.
Tickets are available through the official website and at the ticket offices in Alicante and Murcia.
Global Sounds remains committed to offering a diverse program to the public, presenting globally acclaimed artists who are not often heard in Alicante and Murcia. The cycle aims to showcase voices and styles that broaden musical horizons and invite audiences to experience new perspectives within the Foundation’s spaces.
Luis Boyer, director of Fundación Mediterráneo, remarked that the Global Sounds cycle has received a fantastic reception in its prior editions, and the organization continues to invest in expanding contemporary music programming to Murcia and Alicante.
This world music series features Tindersticks, a British band built on independent pop sensibilities and renowned for blending orchestral arrangements, jazz influences, and an intimate vocal tone. They are scheduled to perform at the Fundación Mediterráneo headquarters in Alicante on Wednesday, January 11, and in Murcia on Thursday, January 12.
Mulatu Astatke
The other featured artist is widely recognized as the father of Ethiopian jazz, a pioneering composer and arranger whose landmark sounds helped shape a global appreciation of Ethiopian music. Mulatu Astatke will bring his distinctive jazz-inflected Ethiopian repertoire to Alicante on Friday, February 10, and to Murcia on Saturday, February 11.
Tickets for performances in the Global Sounds cycle can be purchased through the official website or at the Fundación Mediterráneo ticket offices to ensure easy access for audiences in both cities.
