Euterpe is the Greek muse of music, and her spirit hovers over the mountains, mesetas, and islands of Spain, a country rich with musical traditions. In Los Euterpeanos, Pollux depicts musicians playing instruments from the various regions of Spain.
From the Basque trikitixa to the Canarian huesera, each instrument is the product of the diverse origins of the Spanish people. Whether the instrument's origins are Arabic or Basque, these Euterpeans march together in a single collection, creating a unique symphony of color and movement.
