In western Switzerland, in an outstanding spot in the middle of the Alpine forests, near the Principality of Liechtenstein, Waldhaus Konzerte Flims is organising a special music session during the winter season featuring musicians from the international scene.
This year the Al Ayre Español group is taking part, with the support of AC/E through the mobility programme of the PICE. Founded by Eduardo López Banzo in 1988, it owes its name to the title of a fugue for guitar by composer Gaspar Sanz of Calanda (Aragón). Over the years Al Ayre Español has become not only a prestigious group but a philosophy of performance, endowing Gaspar Sanz’s title with content through great professionalism, reflection and performances. It won the National Music Prize in 2004 and is a flexible group that can adapt perfectly to different formats – Baroque orchestra and Classical-Romantic orchestra – and has visited the finest concert halls and music festivals in the world.
