Barencia is an imaginary city, a point halfway between Barcelona and Florence. It is a unique fusion of different traditions, a magical alchemy that creates a spectacle of encounters between music and dance, between flamenco and jazz.

Barencia is a compact group: Xavi Torres, one of the most promising Catalan pianists in European jazz, joins the young double bass player Michelangelo Scandroglio, an emerging talent on the Italian scene, to create compositions that reveal not only an extraordinary capacity of interpretation, but also an excellent ability for writing and artistic production.
