Description

On May 23, 1403, Clavijo and his companions set sail from the port of Càdiz, headed for the city of Samarkand, the capital of Asia. Henry III had given a mission to his ambassador, the noble, courteous, and eloquent Clavijo… Constantinople has taken this celebrated route, therefore, and transformed it into a sort of musical peregrination. Using musical and historical sources from the regions visited by Clavijo, dating from the period of his travels, the ensemble has attempted to revisit his journey in its own way, through music.
