Catalan Music Program
NJ, United StatesThis concert offers the opportunity to discover three Catalan composers who developped their careers partially in the United States: Joan Manén (1883-1971), Marc Migó (1993-), and Lluis Benejam (1914-1968). Their unique styles merge the Mediterranean light with American influences. Similarly, the performers involved in this concert represent the two involved nations (Bethany Bobbs comes from The United States, while Daniel Blanch and Kalina Macuta come from Catalonia.) They will merge their musicality to showcase the stylistic richness that characterizes the music of the three featured composers.
