Jordi Savall and Hespèrion XXI make acclaimed return to the UK

 

Following performances at St John's Smith Square on 12 May as part of the London Festival of Baroque Music, and at St George's Hall, Liverpool on 13 MayJordi Savall & Hespèrion XXI’s concerts have been met with outstanding five-star reviews in the press:

 

"[...] The music that streams out cannot fail to thrill, both from its melodic richness and the excitement of its ever-changing rhythmic pulse.

Savall is more than a master musician: he is a master curator of programmes."

Bachtrack

 

"[...] It was a highlight of the opening weekend of the 2019 London Festival of Baroque Music, whose theme is travel and discovery. Savall’s discreet virtuosity, and that of his equally brilliant harp and theorbo confreres Andrew Lawrence-King and Xavier Díaz-Latorre, whispered, twirled and improvised through versions of La Folia."

The Guardian

 
For a chance to catch up on the concert, it will be broadcast on BBC Radio 3 on 5 June at 19:30. You won't want to miss it!
