Jordi Savall & Le Concert des Nations in concert
Baroque&Before celebrates its tenth anniversary in 2024. Tonight, Jordi Savall and Le Concert des Nations take us on a journey through a variety of sound environments of the eighteenth century. We’ll hear works by three composers with three unique musical voices, yet with one thing in common: the desire to innovate. Their originality made the pieces we’ll hear tonight a turning point in the history of music.
Tonight’s program was recorded live in concert February 15, 2023 in Barcelona’s Palau de la Música Catalana. Thanks to WFMT’s association with the European Broadcasting Union, we’re able to bring you tonight’s program as a stream for thirty days following the broadcast. A blue “Listen” button will appear when the stream is accessible.
