Icarus vs Muzak, the group of young instrumentalists trained within the Icarus Ensemble, is in Mexico for a five-concert tour in some of the most prestigious venues in Latin America.
The third performance is at the Centro Nacional de las Artes in Mexico City, in a concert promoted by the Italian Cultural Institute in Mexico City.

The concert is entirely dedicated to Italian music, with a comparison between the ancient production -also in the form of transcription- and the contemporary one.
