CONCIERTO DE MÚSICA ANTIGUA - YAIZA 2019

The family of the Municipal Choir of Yaiza on the occasion of the celebration of the XX Anniversary organized a course taught by the soprano, Cristina Barceló Borges for the enjoyment of its members called "Vocal Technique applied to Choral Singing". As a final touch, last Saturday at the Casa de la Cultura Benito Pérez Armas, a concert of "Ancient Music" was held, by the "Dúo Nao", formed by the soprano Cristina Barceló and the musician Vicent Bru.

A very intimate concert where the audience could enjoy a select repertoire of compositions by authors such as Conrad Puamann, Antonio de Cabezón, J.P. Rameau or John Dowland among others. Vicent Bru was in charge of playing the "Harpsichord also called Clave", one of the most popular instruments during the Baroque, an authentic jewel with keyboard and like the harp and the plucked string guitar together with the voice of Cristina Barceló managed to make the audience travel with them discovering melodies that despite the passage of time are still valid.

The career of both professionals is quite extensive and their performances rise not only for a large part of the Spanish geography, but also in countries such as Germany, France, Belgium, Italy, Austria etc. Vicent Bru, in addition to being a great harpsichordist, is a music teacher at the Higher Conservatory of the Canary Islands and the Professional Conservatory of Music of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. Cristina Barceló combines her teaching work at the Faculty of Teacher Training of the ULPGC, with various performances within the framework of Early Music festivals. Nuvi Tavio, director of the Municipal Choir of Yaiza present at the event at the end together with the members of the Choir and the audience congratulated them for the magnificent performance carried out.
