Synesthesia with the Es Baluard's collection

Es Baluard organises a series of concerts of classical music entitled "Synesthesia with the Es Baluard's collection". This is a programme of sensory crossings between the visual and the sound that will guide us through an anachronistic tour, where the historical periods of the works on display in the museum's Permanent Collection will be seen.  

We start this cycle in cooperation with the Youth Orchestra of the Balearic Islands and with a performance by solo horn Javier Bonet. He's a world-renowned musician with historical instruments that proposes a repertoire related to the works of the late nineteenth century.    

Romanian Dances by Bela Bartok (1881-1945)  

Bartók was one of the founders of the Etnomusic, based on the relationships that bind Ethnology and Musicology. A pioneer in interdisciplinary relationships. This work is related to Nicolas de Stael's Eau de vie, 1948.    

Concerto for horn and orchestra No. 4 by Mozart (1756-1791)  

Curiously Mozart wrote the score of his most famous French horn concert not only in black ink but also in red, green and blue. It is not yet verified whether it was part of a joke to the reader of the composition or an intention to intensify singular interpretation of the score. This work is related to Jonathan Meese's work Dr. Rex Tyrannosaurys Meeseher, 2004    

Symphony No. 1 by Beethoven (1770-1827)  

This symphony explores numerous horizons often contrasted and unpublished until then. A world of light and shadow that jumps from the muddy to the passionate, from tense to dramatic as they are the works of Antoni Ribas or Ricard Anckermann in the collection.    

Javier Bonet  

Member of the Spanish National Orchestra since 1987, Bonet is a founding member of El Concierto Español ensemble besides regular contributor to Jordi Savall, and creator of the group of natural horns Corniloquio. Restless researcher, thanks to his versatility, he develops an internationally recognized work in the field of modern horn, both as a soloist (with Spanish and European orchestras, in addition to Taiwan, China, Japan and USA) as well as with many different groups and styles of chamber music or presenting original teaching programs.
