Stratos Project combines traditional Basque music with Argentine tango in 'El sonido de la tierra'.

El sonido de la tierra: Del folklore al tango nuevo de Astor Piazzolla is a proposal with works that unite the roots of the folklore of the Basque Country through the Songs of Aita Donostia, the new tango of Piazzolla, and the fusion between tango and jazz by accordionist and composer Richard Galliano.

Stratos Project's performance is part of the Dinamiz-ARTj program promoted by the Institute for Just Transition (ITJ) and the City of Energy Foundation (CIUDEN) to boost cultural activity in municipalities affected by the closure of mining and thermal and nuclear power plants and to promote the careers of young artists living in these areas.
