Synopsis.
Emilio Aragón dedicates this new installment of BSO to a unique woman, Alaska, with whom he has many things in common. They arrived in Spain at the same time, in 1973, and they are both sons of Cuban and Spanish parents.
With Alaska we want to reflect the passage of time, a career so fruitful, adapted to each era, without losing an iota of such a special personality. An artist capable of recycling herself, a restlessness to know beyond what was within her reach and how music influenced her from a very young age, in her native Mexico. A pioneer in a gray Spain, which she filled with color.
Alaska will review her life, inevitably marked by music. We will learn about her childhood in Mexico, her arrival in Madrid, her walks with her mother along the Gran Vía and the Madrid flea market that made her discover so many of the things that would later become her life. We will know how to listen to Bowie’s Heroes for the first time, taste a Cuban sandwich and what exactly La Movida madrileña meant.
In a recreation of her own living room, Alaska gives us the keys to her life and her songs, which will be interpreted by Amaral, Sole Giménez, Ariel Rot, David Summers, Andrea Motis, Leonor Watling and Emilio Aragón himself. In addition, the latter will once again play the role of Bebo San Juan to sing to Olvido, a Bolero de salón.
