From silence to emotion
Viola da gamba
19:00
FCAYC Auditorium
Emotion is in everything we do, see and hear, that we are able to assimilate as a memory and that we keep in the deepest part of our being. This is how we can conceive, according to interpretation, part of the cultural heritage that has survived to the present day. Our capacity to be moved by beauty is conditioned by our experiences and our cultural codes, which is why it is both a challenge and satisfaction to recognise ourselves in cultural manifestations conceived for people so distant in time. The genius of artistic creation lies in reflecting the fleetingness of specific moments, but also in reflecting on universal questions. It is this capacity of much baroque music that makes us feel challenged by it. In this case, as the instrument with the tessitura most similar to the human voice, the viola da gamba acts as a direct interlocutor, connecting us with the passions of the soul of 17th-century listeners.
