A due bassi – Music for two bass instruments between 1600 and 1800 

Minstrels – wind instrumentalists – were responsible for much of the music played in the cathedrals of the Iberian Peninsula during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. These same musicians played outdoors in processions and often animated the streets following religious ceremonies. This constant interconnection between the sacred and the mundane is illustrated in this concert, through the sound of the bajones and the small historic organs of the Convent of Bom Jesus in Funchal and the church of Ponta do Sol.

MinistrilesMarsias2022Ministriles de Marsias

Ministriles de Mársias is a true ensemble of minstrels, the name given to wind instrumentalists in cathedral chapels. The group's name refers to the dispute between the civilized Apollo with his harp and the barbarous minstrel Marsyas blowing on the tibia. This competition between strings and wind instruments was evoked by Monteverdi and other contemporaries when instrumenting their works to refer to the minstrels' ability to imitate and support the human voice. Fernando Sánchez, who founded the ensemble Ministriles de Marsias together with the renowned cornetist Paco Rubio, collaborates assiduously with orchestras and groups specialized in historically informed performance and is dedicated to the interpretation of music, from the Renaissance to the present day, always using instruments and techniques inherent to each period. Josep Borràs holds a doctorate from the Autonomous University of Barcelona with an acclaimed work on the Hispanic crisis, has been a member of the groups Hesperion XX and Le Concert des Nations (Jordi Savall) and has been professor of bassoon and baroque bassoon at the Curso Internacional de Música Antígua de Daroca since 1989. and the class of historical bassoons at the Escola Superior de Música de Catalunya, where he has held the position of director of the department of Early Music since its foundation in 2001 and is currently director of the School..
