Luz y Norte, literally translatable as “Light and North”, identifies the Spanish composer Lucas Ruiz de Ribayaz’s collection of music published in Madrid in 1677 and kept by the National Library of Madrid: “Light and North music to walk through the tablatures of the Spanish guitar and harp, to strum and sing accompanied by the organ, and brief explanation of the art, with easy precepts, undoubted and explained with clear rules by theory and practice”.

Luz y Norte is a young Spanish ensemble born out of the interest of all its members in spreading the European and Latin American vocal and instrumental repertoire of the Renaissance and Early Baroque, without ruling out other interesting musical “adventures”.
