The Escarteen Sisters

Contemporary classical, jazz, traditional roots, and Brechtian cabaret.

An intimate and extraordinary evening at Foro El Obraje, where two voices, violin, and cello create a musical world that defies easy categorization.

Flavia and Laia Escartín are The Escarteen Sisters, a duo that moves freely between contemporary classical music, jazz, traditional roots, and Brechtian cabaret, transforming diverse influences into a distinctive, theatrical, and deeply expressive musical language.

With an instrumentation as minimal as it is surprising — two voices, violin, and cello — the sisters explore the rhythmic, melodic, and sonic possibilities of their instruments. Their voices intertwine with strings, improvisation, and theatrical elements to create an experience that feels intimate, unpredictable, and unmistakably their own.

More than a conventional concert, The Escarteen Sisters invite audiences on a musical journey between intimacy and experimentation, tradition and contemporary creation.

About The Escarteen Sisters

Flavia and Laia have developed a distinctive artistic identity shaped by exploration and the meeting of different musical languages. Building on their instrumental and vocal backgrounds, their work incorporates elements of jazz, improvisation, contemporary music, and traditional musical forms.

The result is a music of contrasts: delicate yet powerful, acoustic yet experimental, intimate yet theatrical.

On stage, the connection between the two sisters transforms each piece into a conversation between voice, strings, rhythm, and improvisation, making every performance a singular experience.
