Ok the llink doesn't work but here is a copy and paste:

Quidam Pilgrim is a Cuban based musical duet formed in 2005 by vocalist Adela Rivas Cruz (Santiago de Cuba, 1988) and keyboardist Félix Muñiz Penedo (Santiago de Cuba, 1985). Their music fuses elements of celtic, new age music, alternative rock and afro-Cuban music frequently making use of harmonised vocal melodies against orchestral backgrounds.

Band history After almost two years of studio work, Quidam Pilgrim had its debut on the national Cuban television space: "Cuerda Viva" in November 2006 under the name of "Pilgrim".

Two months later they were nominated for the Cuerda Viva Awards in the categories of Best New Artist and Best Alternative Music Demo.

In March 2007 they performed a version of the song Halls of the Interpreter in the national theater of Havana, incorporating new jazz elements and including the interpretation of the violinist and jazz composer Marta Duarte along with the Camerata Vocale Sine Nomine, the event was televised nationwide and their performance re-aired due to audience request.

Same year in July they performed at the third International Festival Caiman Rock in Havana.

Clips of the music have been used several times on radio and TV spots.

Discography The band's first work has been a musical setting of the classic " The Pilgrim's Progress" by John Bunyan, with each song referring to a scene in the Pilgrim’s journey.

1. Walker (the beginning of the pilgrimage to the Celestial City)

2. The Counsel (the encounter with Mr. Worldly Wiseman)

3. Halls of the Interpreter (the visit to the House of the Interpreter )

4. Redemption (the cross and the Sepulchre)

5. The Summit (the climbing of the Hill Difficulty, the path called “Danger" and the road of "Destruction")
