Echoes of the Spanish Baroque

Our programme will feature works by Spanish composers as well as French, Italian, and English composers who were deeply influenced by Spanish culture and language. Some notable highlights include Handel’s rare and colourful profane Spanish cantata “No se emendará jamás” and Lully’s “Sé que me muero de amor” from ‘Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme’, which reflect the allure of the Spanish language and its poetic expressiveness. We are also thrilled to present the debut performance of our own arrangement of “Fandango, R. 146” by Antonio Soler.

This concert is part of Lowe Ensemble’s tour around the UK, supported by Continuo Foundation, and showcases an Iberian-Baroque inspired programme that explores the musical crosscurrents between Spain and the rest of Europe enriched with festive music to celebrate the Christmas season.
