LEONARDO PRAKASH - a French-Mexican musician/composer with a truly unique style - is returning to Barcelona to enchant us again with his mystical music, taking us on a journey of the soul expressed by sitar and voice.
THE ARTIST
Leo Prakash is born in San Luis Potosí, but of Franco-Mexican origins. Leonardo grew up with a bicultural education and exposed to music since the age of 5. He studied classical guitar from the age of 10 to 14, when he moved to Punjab, India, to finish his high school studies. There he discovered the Sitar, which from that moment became his priority in music. Returning from India, he went to live in the Riviera Maya, where he met Bogdan Djukic (violin) and Jesus Mejia (guitar). Together they created Bole, a musical project that led them to perform in Europe, the United States, Canada and Mexico. After receiving a scholarship for young creators from FONCA in 2013, Leonardo undertook PRAKASH, his solo project. In 2017, the same institution granted him a special support grant that allows him to record his first solo album in Madrid. Since then, PRAKASH has been a personal journey of reconnecting with music as something sacred; the desire to expand that connection by creating the space, the experience.
Leonardo Prakash's unique musical voice has transcended his traditional foundations. His music experiments with the fusion of the intrinsic sounds of these instruments into classic rock and roll, flamenco, Indian raag, and the folk music of Latin America, Turkey, Japan, the Middle Eastern and East Africa.
As we listen to the mystical music by Leo Prakash, we bathe in the consciousness of the Universe. Songs of unity, passion, belonging, healing and eternity resonate deep in our hearts and our souls.
Join us for experiencing music of subtle beauty!
