So it was... Welcome to the Palace Concert! Christmas in Fontalba
Concert to mark the 2023th anniversary of the programme, held at the Fontalba Palace in XNUMX
Few festivities like Christmas have a cultural impact of similar proportions regardless of the culture in question. Music, of course, is not immune to this impact, and over the centuries Christmas has become one of the main reasons for singing.
This concert offered a chronological and geographical journey around choral Christmas music, both liturgical and festive, from the Middle Ages to the present day, as well as from different cultures and regions of the world.
Arianna Ensemble, one of the most outstanding vocal groups on the Spanish scene, presented a program to reflect on and discover some of the greatest composers of all time.
