Details
The celebrations of the Millennium of Montserrat at the Palau de la Música Catalana begin with a concert that brings together a large part of the great contemporary musical family that emerged from the abbey: the Escolania and different groups made up of former boy choirs perform a selection of works from the rich heritage signed by composers of the Montserratina School under the direction of some of the most famous conductors, also trained on the holy mountain.
