La Orquesta Del Titanic
''La orquesta del Titanic'' ("The Titanic's orchestra") is the second joint studio album by Joan Manuel Serrat and Joaquín Sabina after ''Dos pájaros de un tiro'' ("Two birds with one stone") in 2007. The name of the album is a nod to the musicians of the RMS Titanic, as the album was released in a context of financial crisis and troubled times in different aspects of life. Sabina stated in an interview, "As Spain goes adrift, we play on, as in the Titanic." The album's release led the two musicians to embark in their second joint tour, named ''Dos pájaros contraatacan'' ("Two birds strike back"). This tour also resulted in a live album recorded at Estadio Luna Park in Buenos Aires, Argentina, that would be released in November 2012.

Musicians Of The RMS Titanic
The musicians of the ''Titanic'' all perished when the ship sank in 1912. They played music, intending to calm the passengers, for as long as they possibly could, and all went down with the ship. All of the men were recognized for their heroism, especially during the final hours of the sinking. Timeline Eight musicians – members of a three-piece ensemble and a five-piece ensemble – were booked through C.W. & F.N. Black, in Liverpool. They boarded at Southampton and traveled as second-class passengers. They were not on the White Star Line's payroll but were contracted to White Star by the Liverpool firm of C.W. & F.N. Black, who placed musicians on almost all British liners. Until the night of the sinking, the players performed as two separate groups: a quintet led by violinist and official bandleader Wallace Hartley, that played at teatime, after-dinner concerts, and Sunday services, among other occasions; and the violin, cello, and piano trio of Georges Krins, Roger Bri ...
