Pardo and Orbon undoubtedly share a passion for musical projects, partnerships and collaborations.

Jorge Pardo, a prominent figure in the fusion of Jazz and Flamenco, is a virtuoso flutist and saxophonist. His career is adorned with numerous musical awards, from Grammys to recognition from prestigious institutions such as Jazz academies and specialized critics. His impressive resume includes collaborations with Flamenco icons such as Paco de Lucia, with whom he shared stages for over two decades, and the legendary Camaron de la Isla. Additionally, he contributes to the renowned "Spanish Heart Band" project, led by Chick Corea.

On the other hand, Orbon, a Spanish-Cuban composer and instrumentalist, emerges from classical tradition. As a skilled guitarist, he received awards from several institutions in the Americas and Spain, dedicating himself to spreading Spanish music around the world. His remarkable collaborations with musicians from different parts of the globe, such as Chuchu Valdes, Paquito de Rivera and Diego "El Cigala", and his performances on stages throughout the Americas, Africa and Europe, turn him into a world of musical experiences, a world he constantly seeks to share.

The meeting between Jorge Pardo and Armando Orbon resulted in a project that celebrates a selection of composers, from Piazzolla to Héctor Villa-Lobos. In this enchanting fusion of styles, classical music takes us to worlds and sounds of expressive beauty.
