Fiesta presents two amazing Spanish composers from the early 20th century. The brilliant composer and painter Matilde Salvador who was one of the leading figures of the Valencian art scene. And Rosa García Ascot, who was the only female member of the famous Spanish “Group of Eight” composers and was the last student of Manuel de Falla. We will share some of their rarely heard music.
