Raquel García-Tomás offers us a night to “blow off steam with the stars under a night sky”, as the Monteverdi madrigal that gives this concert its title says, Sfogava con le stelle.
On July 27, at 10 p.m., the Peralada’s stage at the cloister of Carmen will host the first performance of the three works inspired by the Baroque Music written by Raquel García-Tomás. We will travel through the work of Bach and Monteverdi dialoguing with her compositions My Old Gramophone # 2 (2019) and […] così mostraste a lei i vivi ardori miei […] (2015, rev. 2018).
To close the night, we will attend the premiere of Suite of Myself chamber version, which the Peralada Festival has commissioned to the composer. On this occasion, we will rediscover the original piece for choir and orchestra in chamber format (vocal quartet, piano and string quartet), recreating the verses of Walt Wihtman and the echo of J. Sebastian Bach in a more intimate and nuanced tone.
