Founded nearly 125 years ago as a wind and percussion orchestra, Barcelona Municipal Band is one of our city’s most deeply-rooted ensembles. No important festive occasion in the Catalan capital is complete without an appearance, and the Grec Festival of Barcelona is no exception. At this year’s Grec, the band will play a programme of opera and zarzuela arias, the latter a genre which has enjoyed moments of extraordinary splendour in Barcelona. Moreover, the soloists will be two outstanding voices: the soprano Marta Mathéu and the baritone José Antonio López, conducted by Salvador Brotons.
