‘Estellés als cors’
September 2024 will mark the centenary of the birth of Vicent Andrés Estellés, one of the most important poets in Valencian literature. In order to make up for the considerable lack of choral literature on his poetry, we have composed and recorded a double work with 23 choirs and a plectrum orchestra. Nearly 500 singers from all over the Valencian Country took part in this double work, which has resulted in the publication of a book by the Alfons el Magnànim Institute (Valencia Provincial Council) containing the 11 new original and unpublished scores and a monographic CD of the sung pieces, which we will perform in the concert.
Estellés was the people’s poet – now the people will sing to him.
Let’s celebrate 100 years of Estellés!
