Granada’s international music and dance festival originates from the symphonic concerts first held in 1883 in the Palace of Charles V during the Corpus Christi festivities. Since 1952 the festival has been one of the most emblematic and attractive cultural events of Granada. It takes places from June to July in the palaces of the Alhambra and in the city’s main monuments and spots.
To mark the centenary of the death of Enrique Granados, AC/E is supporting the festival’s special programme devoted to the great Spanish composer and performed by the Trío Arriaga. The group will perform Granados’s Trio op. 50, a work very much in line with the Central European Romantic aesthetic, and his famous Intermezzo de Goyescas, a piece more in keeping with the Spanish school. In contrast, Shostakovich’s superb Trio no. 2 is an elegiac work characteristic of the Russian tradition of the genre.

Felipe Rodríguez, violin
David Apellániz, violoncello
