Exhibition summary

This performance, 'Todos los bienes del mundo' (All the Goods of the World), is a premiere that journeys through past Renaissance chansons, reinterpreted with contemporary influences from jazz and improvisation. Featuring the vocal artistry of María Berasarte and the historical instruments of David Mayoral, alongside arrangements by Ignacio Prego and Pablo M. Caminero, it creates a new atmosphere for ancient melodies.

Curatorial context

The performance titled 'Todos los bienes del mundo' (All the Goods of the World) offers a contemporary exploration of Renaissance chansons, drawing inspiration from popular folklore. The program breathes new life into ancient songs, presenting them with a free spirit unbound by strict historical interpretation. While at times reflecting the original manuscripts, the arrangements by Ignacio Prego and Pablo M. Caminero infuse the music with elements of contemporary music and jazz, leaving ample space for improvisation. This creates a novel atmosphere, enhanced by the distinctive voice of María Berasarte and the historical instruments played by percussionist David Mayoral. The song that lends its name to this program is by the renowned Renaissance poet and musician Juan del Encina, a key figure of that era. His music, along with that of his contemporaries, captures a period of significant change and experimentation. The spirit of this era, as echoed by Federico G. Lorca in his engagement with ancient popular songs, resonates strongly in this project, which makes its premiere at Contemporánea Condeduque. The conceptual and spiritual depth of this performance is further amplified by the individual talents of the assembled musicians. Ignacio Prego, on harpsichord, piano, and musical direction, and contrabassist Pablo M. Caminero, both rooted in baroque music and jazz, demonstrate a broad musical vocabulary. Percussionist David Mayoral possesses a versatile command of rhythms, while singer María Berasarte effortlessly navigates between jazz recitations and fado, her voice often described as 'naked' for its sonic versatility.
