Biography
Crónica sentimental de España's biography
Songs don´t lie. Based on this slogan, Albertí creates this performance which is neither theatrical nor musical, but a mixture of both. It is so symbiotic that it turns it weird; but the audience will be moved by Spain’s story told through its melodies and songs, being this a way to acknowledge our own identity.
