Luca Argel - 'Sabina' CD

An album born from the crossroads where myth and history meet, reclaiming the past as a reflection of all the struggles of the present.

Sabina recalls the story of an orange seller whose life is little known beyond what happened over the course of a few days, when she suddenly became a political symbol before disappearing, only to return as a legend. Sabina is said to have been an orange seller during a historic period in a Brazil newly freed from slavery and on the brink of the fall of the monarchy.

Amidst a power struggle between imperial and republican elites, a simple orange seller caused the pot to boil over in the streets of the capital of the then Empire of Brazil. Thus begins this journey through time, following the trail of a mysterious figure whose legend reveals much about our own nature and the gears that drive our societies.
