The Chieftains with Carlos Núñez
Irish Dance Set
The Festival Jardins Pedralbes will be testimony of the re-encounter between the world leader in Celtic music, Carlos Núñez, and the Irish folk music band The Chieftains.
Although Carlos had met them as a child after a concert in his home town of Vigo, and had even played for Paddy Moloney in Brittany, the first collaboration between Carlos Núñez and The Chieftains was in 1989, live and also in studio.
Three decades have passed since and they have not stopped collaborating. From the soundtrack for Charlton Heston's Treasure Island, "The Long Black Veil" to rock stars like The Rolling Stones, Ry Cooder and Sinead O'Connor.
The Chieftains participated in almost all of Carlos' albums, and vice versa. They have done innumerable tours and concerts all over the world. It was even common for both bands to exchange musicians. But, it has been some years now since they worked together.
For this reunion they have selected classic tunes, some they have not touched for decades, and their enjoyment at playing together again will, without any doubt, spread to the public.
