Repertoire

Abraham Cupeiro: Pangea

Pangea explores the ancestral sounds of the world’s cultures. Abraham Cupeiro will be performing his own music, dedicated to different parts and cultures of our planet. It features the surprising sounds of rarely heard traditional instruments such as the Hopi flute from Native America, the Chinese hulusi flute and the Celtic carnyx.

Programme

To celebrate the end is also to celebrate the beginning.  Although our idea of progress, evolutionary and linear, seems far removed from the circular view of life held by primitive civilisations, that way of thinking is still important, with many anthropologists considering it to be a structural part of the human psyche.

With his project Pangea, recorded in 2018 by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra at the Abbey Road studios, Abraham Cupeiro invites us back to the early history of the planet, before the continents separated, when life was beginning to appear and evolve. To reconnect with Mother Earth, the composer turns to ancestral sounds and age-old instruments, such as the Hopi flute from Native America, the traditional Chinese hulusi flute and the Celtic carnix.
