Manta is a cultural ritual that combines ancestral traditions with the future. The Centro Cultural Vila Flor’s garden will once again host humanist gestures and, in this edition, sweet-scented music of African inspiration. This offers a gaze and an increasingly broad sensation, that transports us to an ideal of originality, authenticity and the celebration of an increasingly-changing world. Four concerts that enable us to live in harmony with nature and the surrounding architecture, in a manifestation of the beautiful, the sublime and the mystery of creation. Tristany, Lura, Aline Frazão and Nancy Vieira offer the perfect constellation to extend Manta to the genius and generosity of music that emanates from a fascinating venue and reminds us of the power of contemplating both the future and ancestral roots. The polyphony of this art... corresponds to us all!
