RUMBA CONGOLENYA I RITMES AFROAMERICANS

Four musical evenings in the English Courtyard at the former Casaramona factory and two poetry nights devoted to Miguel Hernández and the painter Miquel Barceló.

All the street musicians in this band have one thing in common: they have been victims of polio, live in Kinshasa and move around in colorful wheelchairs. His musical proposal, a mixture of Congolese and African-American rhythms, is the soundtrack to a strong message: disability is not in the body, but in the mind.
