The 17th edition of the Godella International Chamber Music Festival reaffirms its commitment to artistic excellence, the training of young talents and the connection with the audience through unique experiences.
The programme brings together outstanding performers such as Isabel Monar, Josu de Solaun, Carles Marín, Esther Apituley and Joan Enric Luna, through proposals ranging from the “Echoes of the soul” tribute to Lorenzo Palomo, to The four hands of two great pianists; as well as innovative stage forms such as Bach & Bleach, a theatre-musical show.
Along with the concerts, the Festival will hold other activities such as the Young Talents Workshop, the Chamber Music Competition, the musical walk through Godella and the gastronomic concert.
The closing of the Festival will bring orchestra, soloists and a participatory choir together in a Grand Final Concert.
The echoes of this edition will resonate within memory like an echo of the soul.
