Although he remains the world’s most famous gambist, Jordi Savall is an exciting conductor, leading the Hespèrion XXI ensemble in medieval, Renaissance and Baroque repertoire and Le Concert des Nations in repertoire ranging from Baroque to Romanticism. The great artist is also artistic director of a festival that bears his name. The next Jordi Savall Festival will take place from 12 to 18 April 2024 in the heart of Catalonia, in Santes Creus (near Tarragona). The programme includes concerts in thousand-year-old places imagined by the master Savall, with music ranging from the Middle Ages to contemporary music, and an astonishing Ravel concert and the music that inspired him (on 17 August).
