The festival’s opening concert in the LVSO Concert Hall will feature music by Spanish composer Óscar Navarro, conducted by the composer himself. Navarro is one of the most prominent figures on the international wind instruments music scene today. His work transcends the traditional framework of wind music, freeing the orchestra from rigid academic standards. By blending Spanish identity with global styles and bringing the cinematic sweep of film scores to the concert stage, he tells vivid stories through sound. He also embraces theatricality – frequently transforming the musicians into actors who vividly project the colors of different cultures.
