About the event

This concert offers a musical journey through three centuries of Portuguese symphonic music, full of contrasting sounds. Sérgio Azevedo’s surprises with its infectious rhythms and bold harmonies. This is followed by Bomtempo’s grandiose Symphony No. 2, in a more classical-romantic tone. The new musical transcription and critical edition of this symphony by Ekletica, conducted by conductor Luis Miguel Clemente, will be performed for the world premiere.Giocosa Overture

Finally, Divertimento no 1 by Joly Braga Santos, one of the greatest names in Portuguese music of the 20th century, a work that surprises with its energy in an almost mysterious tone, the enormous technical and artistic challenges it poses to the musicians and the apotheotic and absolutely extraordinary ending.
