The 140th Anniversary Concert of the Band features a collaboration between the Escolania de Montserrat and mezzo-soprano Gemma Coma-Alabert. Under the direction of José Rafael Pascual-Vilaplana, the concert will present a program that merges significant contemporary pieces for band. This includes the premiere of Hector Parra's work 'Chibola Mu Lumba,' showcasing the composer's dedication to exploring new organic sounds, and the moving performance of David Maslanka's 'Angel of Mercy,' which invites spiritual reflection through its melodic transitions. The highlight of the concert will be the Fourth Symphony by Johan de Meij, which includes solos by the renowned mezzosoprano and features the children's choir, creating a high-level artistic collaboration for this milestone event.
