Tempo Lanzarote is a “musical featuring actors, musicians and soloists”, chronicling the three decisive moments in the historical development of Lanzarote from the sixteenth century to the present day…”

The first moment is the “Rapture”, which brings to life the sieges and pirate attacks the island suffered at the hands of pirates…

…many islanders were enslaved during these attacks. Here they took one without him touching the floor

The second moment is “Exodus”, a period between 1727 and 1736…

…during this time, volcanic eruptions triggered a mass exodus from the island…

…in search of a living.

The third moment is “Tempo”. Lanzarote went through a boom period with the production of cochinilla and barrilla…

…The farmer goes back to working the land and searches in the topsails, in the natural sanded area like La Geria, and the jable, for a new formula for agriculture to produce good harvests …

…Fishing became an important source of income and tuna and sardine factories began to spring up…

Beautiful lullaby.

Today, Benito Cabrera could not be here but we were pleasantly surprised with the performance of Victor Estarico.

The show is accompanied by a photo slideshow.

We continue with “Tempo”: With tourists pouring in, and artist César Manrique changes the physiognomy of the island…

… with a space recovery project, taking advantage of nature as a support for creation, which becomes the Centers for Arts, Culture and Tourism “.

A great audiovisual show of dance and music. Congratulations to all musicians, artists and organization.
