The Routes of Slavery is a musical homage to the memory of victims of the slave trade from Jordi Savall and his ensemble. The multicultural project is a world first in the history of music and of the three continents involved in the trade in African slaves. Sponsored by UNESCO, this reconciliation is founded on equality, harmony and reciprocal inspiration, constituting the commemoration of a tragic and shameful chapter in the history of mankind. But it is also a joyful celebration of hearts and spirits united through music and dance, offering a vital source of survival, a refuge of peace, consolation and hope.
"The women, men and children who were brutally deported from their villages in Africa to the European colonies in the New World had only their culture of origin to accompany them on the journey: religious beliefs, traditional medicine, dietary customs and music: songs and dances that they kept alive in their new destinations, known as habitations or plantations. We shall try to evoke those shameful moments in the history of humanity through a series of eloquent texts and accounts, accompanied by the emotion and vitality of the music to which the slaves sang and danced."
