Cantareras represents Carola Ortiz's fourth solo music project, available both as an album and as a live performance. This project encompasses a curated collection of songs and romances drawn from the rich female oral tradition of the Iberian Peninsula, reimagined with a contemporary twist, incorporating elements of folk, medieval music, jazz, and electronic influences. The primary aim of this project is to delve into and shed light on the historical experiences of women, highlighting significant milestones in their life cycles and rituals, including courtship, marriage, motherhood, and death.
Historically, Cantareras were the women responsible for fetching water from springs and rivers to fill the community quarries—a profession traditionally associated with women, which has now become nearly obsolete or extinct in Europe. The term "Cántera" (clay vessel) is a fusion of two words: "sing" and "womb". Through singing, these women conveyed their sorrows and struggles, expressing sentiments they might not have dared to articulate publicly. Moreover, voice and percussion served as their sole means of creating music during that era, often employing everyday objects and kitchen utensils like spoons, plates, liquor bottles, pans, thimbles, and even mortars.
The album has been meticulously produced by Mario G. Cortizo and features notable collaborations with steemed vocalists such as Xabier Díaz, Eliseo Parra, and Rosario 'La Tremendita'.
