Concert: 'La Belle Epoque' by Cobla Reus Jove

Experience a nostalgic journey through the Belle Époque period with the concert titled 'La Belle Epoque' performed by Cobla Reus Jove under the direction of Jordi León. This concert highlights a unique musical era from the late 19th to early 20th century, focusing on the development of sardana music and the cobla ensemble in the Girona region of Catalonia. Musicians from this time contributed significantly to the cobla repertoire, and this concert aims to celebrate those lesser-known composers like Josep Serra and others whose works have been largely forgotten. Jordi León has meticulously selected pieces that reflect the elegance and diversity of this musical genre, incorporating both sardanas and dance music to showcase the rich tapestry of compositions from that era. The concert will be enhanced by scholarly introductions from musicologist David Puertas, providing context and appreciation for these historic works.
