PRESS RELEASE

23/12/2020 | Natalia Erice "We invite you to share our journey: photos, concerts and previously unseen audiovisual material". With this welcome message, and before bidding farewell to 2020, the musical ensemble La Tempestad begins the celebration of its 20th anniversary with a stimulating initiative which, under the name Encuentros Virtuales XX Aniversario, makes audiovisual material from the group, both published and unreleased, available to the public through a digital platform for which registration is free of charge: https://forms.gle/25mw6N6vehyL4pUu5. Each meeting will revolve around a different theme or composer, with the inaugural session, on 30 December, devoted to Haendel. It will be followed by Scarlatti (10 January), Bach (24 January), Mozart (7 February), Haydn (21 February) and Brunetti & Lidón (7 March).

Aware that this is not the best year for celebrations, the group directed by the harpsichordist Silvia Márquez did not want to end the year without a nod to its anniversary, "in the hope that the winds of 2021 will blow away the ills that came with 2020". True to its philosophy of establishing a close rapport with the public, La Tempestad invites attendees to interact with the musicians themselves who have taken part in the various projects, as well as with others who have collaborated in a special way with the group and are part of its history: programmers, teachers, record producers and musicologists. "We want to share with you a new initiative through which we can look back on some of the most special moments for us in these 20 years", says La Tempestad, the group that was born in the autumn of 2000 and has since become a leading ensemble in the field of historically informed performance in Spain, recognised by critics and audiences with numerous awards such as the IV Premios de la Música de la Región de Murcia, which they have just received for the CD "Brunetti & Lidón" (IBS Classical) and as an acknowledgement of their exemplary career, a journey they describe in these words: "The path has been a varied one, with great joys and also some sorrows and stumbles, but above all it has been a great learning experience, an encounter with wonderful music by well-known and lesser-known composers, and the opportunity to work with outstanding musicians, professionals and colleagues"

It is also possible to purchase the CD corresponding to each theme or meeting at a significant discount.
