Songs, Battles, and Dances from the Old and New World: 1100­–1780

Jordi Savall enjoys a singular legacy as one of the most captivating artists of the past half century, inspiring audiences around the globe with performances that unite intellectual curiosity, meticulous research, and vibrant musicianship. He returns to Boston with Hespèrion XXI, Tembembe Ensamble Continuo, and La Capella Reial de Catalunya to explore how music served as a tool of faith, resistance, and survival through seven centuries of global transformation. A mirror of pain and hope, of war and peace, is reflected throughout a vibrant collection of music spanning Medieval troubadours, Slave Songs from the African diaspora, indigenous melodies, and Sephardic prayers.
