RIANXEIRA Single Channel HD Video. 15.30 min.
 

La Solfónica is a choir based in Madrid, which grew out of the protests at Puerta del Sol on May 15, 2011, the day after which the “15-M” movement is named. Formed in the run-up to regional elections, its members, inspired by the Arab Spring, demanded change. Performing classical music at demonstrations, the choir follows the tradition of composers like Giuseppe Verdi, who in the opera Nabucco propagated the liberation of northern Italy from Austria. This opera was written in 1841 and became closely linked with the Italian unification movement. David Alegre, conductor of La Solfónica, says the same message still resonates today in Spain, more than 170 years later. At that time he says, “it was a political military occupation but today the occupations are economic and ideological.” Rianxeira is a film about collective resonance and dissonance as dissidence. 

As part of the IIPPE joint conference with AFEP (French Association for Political Economy/L’Association Française d’Économie Politique), with the participation of ADEK (Association for the Development of Keynesian Studies), AHE (Association for Heterodox Economics) and EAEPE (the European Association for Evolutionary Political Economy) Rianxeira  - a film about the Spanish protest choir La Solfonica will be screened with following panel debate on July 4th at 14.30.
