About the event
Beginning in the glittering court of Louis XIV in France, then moving through Italy and finally returning to the Iberian Peninsula, this programme explores how Spanish styles and sensibilities resonated throughout Europe. The programme brings together a wide palette of vocal and instrumental works—some newly adapted for the ensemble—illustrating the dialogue between courtly refinement, earthy dances and sacred reflection.
