About the Project
Apocalipsis Río de la Plata is a Sound Action Homage to be performed on the banks of the Río de la Plata in the city of Buenos Aires.
This project is part of a programme aimed at composing and performing music for nature, pursuing new forms of translation and diplomacy between human beings and the territory.
The work also pays homage to the victims of the dictatorship who were thrown into its waters in the so-called ‘Death Flights’.
