Program
Selections from La Belleza Caribenya
Orchestrations by Owen Pallett
It’s time to travel to the Caribbean Ocean and the rivers and jungle of Colombia with Lido Pimienta and London Symphonia!
Lido Pimienta, London-based Polaris Music Prize winning composer, vocalist, curator and boundary bending interdisciplinary artist will perform selections from La Belleza Caribenya, her new double album to be released this July.
In La Belleza, which means beautiful in Spanish, Lido creates classical music from a Caribbean point of view. What started as an experiment relying on technology grew to be a sublime experience of belonging and growth with Lido creating live orchestrations assisted by her mentor and arranger, Owen Pallett.
In Caribenya, a play on words in Spanish that combines the Caribe Indigenous people and Enya, the Irish experimental singer, Lido sees herself as the Caribbean Enya, who embodies the beauty of the islands and its peoples.
“I am calling this show, Caribbean Sublime (Caribe Sublime), as a testament to the beauty of music made with the intention to show love, and be love, and bring love in a classical language that has loved me back.”
