Event
La Musgana
Take the traditional music of Spain, dance tunes, love songs, music for rituals such as weddings and village celebrations, perform it on the traditional instruments - bagpipes, wooden flutes, zanfona (hurdy-gurdy), then add something comtemporary with accordion, guitar, fiddle and clarinets. This is the sound of La Musgana. Except that you haven't taken into consideration the basic verve and energy of the band.
La Musgana has done a great deal of field work to learn both the tunes and songs of the Castillian countryside, and the instruments that should play this music. Europe and Africa, the Mediterranean and the Atlantic have all left their mark on the center of the Iberian peninsula, and the music of Castilia reflects a fusion of styles started many centuries ago. But when all the research is said and done, it is the passion of their performance, their flare for fun, and their commitment to pass this along to their audiences that makes La Musgana concert the exhilirating event that it is. Even the name of the group is an attempt to get away from the serious treatment of Spanish music. The name means the water rat.
