Prepare yourself for a sacred and history-immersed musical experience. Spaniard Jordi Savall, a world-renowned viol player, conductor, and musical scholar, has devoted his career to reviving and interpreting the vast repertoire of early music. His profound understanding of historical contexts and his virtuosity on the viol make him a luminary in the world of period performance. With Hespèrion XXI, Savall assembles a group of exceptional musicians, each a specialist in the intricacies of historical instruments, to breathe life into centuries-old compositions.
Pre-concert Conversation with the Artists: 6:30pm, Whittall Pavilion.
