“"We wanted to propose an ambitious and contrasting program. Franz Schubert's Symphony No. 8 takes us to an intimate and expressive climate, where each motif carries great emotional weight. For its part, Antonín Dvořák's Symphony No. 8 brings light, energy, and a more open and vital character. Together, these works allow young musicians to show sensitivity and enthusiasm in a fundamental repertoire of romantic symphonism."
The guest conductor for these Spring Concerts is Alejandro Muñoz, who is currently the principal conductor of the Camerata Gala and the Coro de Ópera de Córdoba. The program will include two symphonies: F. Schubert's Symphony No. 8 in B minor D 759 Unfinished and A. Dvořák's Symphony No. 8 in G major Op. 88. Concertmaster Antonio García Egea, a renowned violinist with a distinguished international career, will also participate.
