Details
The young soprano Serena Sáenz reunites with the Vespres d'Arnadí ensemble and its director, Dani Espasa, to perform, at the Palau de la Música Catalana, a selection of baroque opera arias. Handel, Rameau and Vivaldi, three of the greatest exponents of the period, although representatives of two different worlds – Saxon and Latin– are the media chosen for a demanding deployment of resources.
