Mexican conductor Alondra de la Parra presents her Festival Paax GNP | Musica Maestra

A festival that builds bridges between continents and artists. In the summer of 2022, Mexican conductor Alondra de la Parra curated the first edition of the newly-founded Paax GNP. Over five days, the festival welcomed famous artists from all over the world to the Mayan Riviera in Alondra de la Parra’s home country Mexico, bringing together musicians, ballet dancers, singers and performers.
Stars such as Serbian violist Nemanja Radulović, Venezuelan violinist Alexis Cárdenas, Russian-German violinist Aleksey Igudesman, Portuguese dancer Marcelino Sambé, Venezuelan cuatro player Leo Rondón, Chilean-French hornist Matías Piñeira and Venezuelan double bassist Edicson Ruiz, with whom de la Parra shared the stage in numerous concerts, were among the artists. Soloists were supported by The Impossible Orchestra, which Alondra de la Parra founded during the pandemic.
One highlight of the festival was the world premiere of "The Silence of Sound.” With Mexican clown Gabriela Muñoz at her side, Alondra de la Parra created a multi-disciplinary project in which classical music, performance and video art combine. The artistic duo conceptualized the piece, penned the script and selected the music.
In this video, Musica Maestra Alondra de la Parra talks about her vision for the festival, the challenges of organising it, special encounters with the musicians and memorable artistic moments.
