Details
The music by Empordà-born Marc Timón, guest composer this season at the Palau de la Música, stars in this concert performed by the Orfeó Català and choirs from the Palau’s choral school. In addition to a new performance of Les trompetes de la mort—a piece that premièred last season at the Palau de la Música for the Cor de Noies girls’ choir—audiences can also enjoy a commission from the Barcelona Creació Sonora programme for the first time, as well as Seven last words of the unarmed by the American composer Joel Thompson.
