Hesperion XXI, Directed by Jordi Savall
Musical Europe: The Golden Age of Consort Viol Music
The premier Spanish ensemble, directed by its founder Jordi Savall, returns to the International Series to present music for five violas da gamba, lute, and percussion. Their program is a virtual tour of 16th- and 17th- century Europe, with works by John Dowland (England), Antonio de Cabezón (Spain), Michel Philidor (France), Samuel Scheidt (Germany), Luigi Rossi (Italy), and others. One of the most multifariously gifted musicians of his generation, Jordi Savall’s career as a concert performer, teacher, researcher and creator of new projects, both musical and cultural, make him one of the principal architects of the current revaluation of historical music.
