The Surtierra Touring Project will work with five community choirs to tour performances of the Misa de los Mineros in Hampshire, West Sussex, Dorset and culminate with two large-scale performances in London as part of Refugee Week in June 2025 in which all singers/ choirs that have been involved in the project will be invited to perform together.
Background
In 2021 Quimantu collaborated with the community choir Andover Museum Loft Singers (AMLS) to rehearse and stage performances of the new choral/ symphonic arrangement of the Misa de los Mineros. Together we presented two very successful performances in London and Hampshire followed by a recording of the work, released 15/9/23 and available on all major platforms.
