Overview
- The album arrived Friday more than three years after 'Motomami', signaling a deliberate stylistic break.
- She centers the record on the lives of saints and female mysticism, singing in 13 languages including Catalan, Latin, Japanese, Italian, Arabic and Ukrainian.
- The production features the London Symphony Orchestra under Daníel Bjarnason with Catalan choirs, alongside guests such as Björk, Yves Tumor, Carminho, Estrella Morente, Silvia Pérez Cruz and Yahritza.
- Structured in four movements, the work traces a path from departure and worldliness to grace and a homecoming.
- Rosalía says she spent a year on lyrics and another on arrangements in isolation in Los Angeles, training her voice in classical technique, as online reaction both praises the ambition and questions the multilingual approach.
