Music for a new world
The Concierto de Aranjuez premiered at the Palau de la Música Catalana in 1940 and since then has been one of the most performed and appreciated concerts internationally. The work that completed the program that day at the Palace was, precisely, Symphony No. 9 ‘From the New World’ by Dvořák.
We will relive that premiere with the debut in our orchestra of the great Miloš Karadaglić, the most acclaimed guitarist of the moment, and we will celebrate the 50th anniversary of Pau Casals’ death by performing one of his most emblematic works.
