Arts·Q with Tom Power
The musicians sit down with Q guest host Gill Deacon to talk about their collaboration on Pimienta's new album.
It's been five years since the Grammy-nominated musician Lido Pimienta made waves with her breakout album, Miss Colombia. Now, she's back with La Belleza, which takes an entirely new musical direction. Canadian composer Owen Pallett co-produced the album, which was recorded with help from the Medellín Philharmonic Orchestra. Pimienta and Pallett sit down with guest host Gill Deacon to talk about their collaboration, and how in the process of making La Belleza, Lido ended up learning that classical music is not her enemy.
