Barcelona is an open city; a meeting point for musicians from Europe, Africa, Asia and Latin America with a common nexus: sharing influences and cultures in search of music that represents the mixed nature of the Catalan capital. MiraMundo is a good example of these cosmopolitan leanings, bringing together performers from different places with the aim of creating music that ignores boundaries and can’t be pigeon-holed. MiraMundo is a multicultural approach telling stories of life, love, journeys and feelings based on mixing different styles: bossa nova, mariachi, samba, music from Italian singer-songwriters, African rhythms and Asian melodies. All this is seasoned with a good range of rhythms, melodies and powerful harmonies. The aim? “Connecting cultures that seem distant from one another,” they say.
