We recommend starting this year's St. Andrew’s Day with the Friday concert of Los Duendes in Czasoprzestrzeń. A real feast is coming for lovers of ethnic mixtures in hot rhythms.

Los Duendes is an international band playing music from the borderland of flamenco, latino, with elements of improvisation, which was established in 2018 in Wrocław. "Duende" is an elf, dwarf, a small magical creature inhabiting space on the border between reality and fantasy, present in the legends of many cultures since the dawn of time. In flamenco culture, "to have a duende" means to have a special talent for singing or playing an instrument. It is an artistic soul reflected in art. A magical and authentic element.
