Southern songs you've heard and that do not age.
"VOLVER"
A night of encounters within the warmth of those southern songs, songs that you have probably heard, songs that do not age.
Celeste and Daniel love to play beautiful songs together. They are experts in the Latin repertoire, such as folklore songs from Argentina and Mexic, cubano boleros, but also some original songs.
Celeste and Daniel met ten years ago when they were both residing in Amsterdam, studying at the Conservatory of Amsterdam. Since that musically fruitful time, they have stayed in contact, playing and recording together. Now they will meet again in the city where they first met, and it will be a nice and inspiring meeting. You will love it!
In this concert in Batavierhuis they will collaborate with the Batavier: Laia Escartin, singer and violist.
Laia is an old student of Celeste Alias. Celeste was her main teacher in the Jazz Vocals Bachelor she did in el Conservatori del Liceu (Barcelona), graduating five years ago.
After many years of living in different countries, Celeste and Laia meet again in the cozy concertzaal of Batavierhuis, in the same way that Celeste is also meeting again with Daniel. All being ready to share with you the music that brings them together.
A night of encounters, reminiscing old times, and celebrating what comes out in the new times.
A night of encounters within the warmth of those southern songs, songs that you have probably heard, songs that do not age.

At an interdisciplinary level, Celeste's work holds a strong bond with poetry, dance and plastic art.
She is currently a professor at the Superior Conservatory of the Liceu in Barcelona.

DANIEL DE MORAES - GUITAR
Born in the Uruguayan capital of Montevideo, guitarist Daniel de Moraes was exposed to a wide range of music from an early age. As well as being nourished by the music of his Latin American roots, he also absorbed the influence of classical music. His father, a well-known guitarist and song-writer in Uruguay, was his first influence inspiring him to become a musician. Before long, he began playing, recording and touring with many important Uruguayan artists such as Ruben Rada (Grammy winner 2011) and Jorge Drexler (Oscar winner 2005).
Daniel ́s fascination for jazz music and his curiosity to search for new sounds led him to study at the prestigious Conservatory of Amsterdam, where he graduated in 2013 with a Master degree. During his time in Holland, he has had the opportunity to share the stage with some of the top musicians in the Netherlands and also with internationally acclaimed artists like Ivan Lins and Mafalda Anauth.
