The Focus-Abengoa Foundation has organized a new edition of the Series of Promotional Concerts under the title The organ and its music: the language dreamed by the most famous musicians of the Baroque, which seeks to bring organ music to university students through the performance of three Spanish organists who, despite their youth, possess broad musical knowledge and experience in the world of concerts. This year the concerts will be given by Pablo Taboada, Mar Vaque and Arturo Barba.
Pablo Taboada will inaugurate this new cycle on Tuesday, November 17. He studied at the Conservatorio del Liceo de Barcelona and, currently, he is a liturgical organist at several churches in Barcelona. On Wednesday 18, Mar Vaque will perform several Baroque pieces on the organ of Los Venerables. Arturo Barba, now a professor at the Conservatory of Music of Valencia, will close the series on Thursday 19.
Concerts will be held at 8:30 pm in the Iglesia de los Venerables and will be broadcast by Radio Clásica, RNE.
The series of Promotional Concerts is part of the music program of the Focus-Abengoa Foundation, which seeks to transmit among young people the importance of a good musical education as a fundamental support for the dissemination of cultural values. 55 young organists have participated in the program since it was first held in 1992, offering their music through live recitals at the Focus-Abengoa Foundation.
