Tomàs Milans.
Canet de Mar (1672-1742)
Active in Girona between 1714 and 1733.
Son
of a wealthy family from Canet de Mar, he was a distant relative of St.
Josep Oriol, whom he accompanied in his agony with a harp - he was a
harpist - and a small choir. He arrived in Girona to avoid the
persecution that the victorious Bourbons exercised against the
Austrianist ecclesiastics after the conquest of Barcelona in 1714. Here
he enjoyed a compositional freedom that he certainly had not found
there. The network of his social relations was very wide and his music
reflects this by using the musical innovations that arrived from Naples
to Barcelona where the court of the last Austrianist monarch was
located. With him the importance of the new string instruments grew
with music increasingly adapted to the ears of a new society, the
bourgeoisie, which delighted in the new brilliant music and few
rhythmic artifices.
This concert presents works for 4 voices
-without the bass of the classical era- and a continuo with a baroque
harp, remembering that Tomàs Milans was a harpist. The presence of this
instrument in a medium-sized concert is a very unique event, something
that is rare nowadays.
Concert for 4 voices and continuo (harp, lute, cello and organ)
Entrada 15€
