A formula that combines music and food, chef Santi Taura offers an exquisite dinner of dishes made with Mallorcan products and the group Sterlin with a concert tribute to the musician, poet and novelist Leonard Cohen. The benefits of this combination will benefit the NGO Veïns sense fronteras.
Formed by Adela Peraita and Steve Withers, Sterlin, an internationally active group based in Mallorca, recreates the Cohen songbook and brings it to the island’s public translating into Catalan some of his lyrics.
For this tribute they have chosen Songs of Love and Hate (Cançons d'amor i odi), an album released in 1971 and considered one of the most personal and emotional works of the Canadian singer. To complete the repertoire of the concert some of the biggest hits of the artist like Hallelujah and Suzanne, sung in English.
The work of Leonard Cohen, Prince of Asturias Prize for Literature 2011, has influenced three generations around the world through the creation of a sentimental imagery that blends poetry and music.
