Maksim Zaitsev (Россия, 1996)

Is a musical delirium that will make you dance non-stop. You know their songs, we know it; enjoy and let yourself go. This duo of tiparracas has been in the Madrid underground and queer festivals all over Spain since 2015. Blessed by glitter, they cross themselves in front of the mixing board and give way to an existential madness in which any genre is welcome.

In Russia, her name awakens childhood memories, smiles and a feeling of ambiguity. Who is she really? The writer and journalist Margaryta Yakovenko will be our special guest to co-present together with Cuna Literaria this atypical tribute and vindication of the figure of Baba Yagá through a very particular literary-folkloristic-feminist-musical remix:

1. MUSSORGSKY's musical piece inspired by Baba Yagá and belonging to the Cuadros suite in an exhibition. The dancer Camila Velaverde will give us a very special surprise in relation to this musical piece.

 

2. Stellar appearance of the writer ALEJANDRO MORELLÓN, who will delight us with the reading of his story, 'La Señora de los Tumores', inspired by Baba Yagá and published in the fanzine Hijos de Sedna.

 

3. After party with a special DJ Session by  Tiparracas DJ. With the rhythm of Baba Yagá and cocktails at affordable prices that will make this night a very particular party.
