Salvador Brotons leads the Barcelona Symphonic Band on a colourful sampling of 20th century Catalan music. The three works, all world premieres, feature popular cobla band instruments such as the bright, piercing reeds of the tible and the tenora and the flabiol flute with its high tones. Manuel Oltra’s writing is deeply rooted in Catalan tradition and L’Alimara is a symphonic poem with medieval echoes. Both Juli Garreta’s Suite Empordanesa and Joan Lluís Moraleda’s epic Tirant lo Blanc are considered milestones in Catalonian symphonic music, the latter transporting audiences to the fights, feasts and chivalric romance of its eponymous hero.
