The Cantoría ensemble shows its vocal expertise at ECOS Festival (22/07/2018)

Listening to some 'Bad Languages' was never as pleasant as on the night of this Saturday, when the ensemble Cantoría, led by Jorge Losana, played his new program of Renaissance pieces in the plaza of the church of Librilla.

For almost an hour, the group, composed by Inés Alonso (soprano), Samuel Tapia (countertenor), Jorge Losana (tenor and direction) and Valentín Miralles (bass), delighted the audience with works by Mateo Flecha 'El Viejo', Francisco Guerrero and Juan de la Enzina.

With this concert, attended by Mar Hernández, mayor of Librilla;

María Senena Corbalán, vice-rector for Internationalization, and Vanessa Galián, Councilor for Integration, Social Dynamization and Culture;

the ensemble made its artistic reappearance in the territory where they were born.

Since they emerged as a group in 2016 during the first edition of the ECOS International Festival of Ancient Music of Sierra Espuña, the vocal quartet has not stopped growing and promoting its international projection.

After being selected by the European program EEEmerging for 2018, Cantoría began to reap international successes, among which its concerts in the Italian festival Wunderlammer Trieste stand out;

the artistic residency at the Ghislierimusica Institute, located in the city of Pavia;

his participation in the Belgian event Albanova Festival and in the French cycle 'La Cité de la Voix'.

During this year, in addition, they have also become part of the network of professional groups of ancient music NOEME, which will send several of its representatives to this edition of ECOS Festival, to offer resident groups advice and training in communication, management cultural and social networks.

Organized by the Early Music Project platform together with Territorio Sierra Espuña, ECOS Festival welcomes another of its star groups tonight: the Ensemble ECOS of Sierra Espuña, the festival's musical representative.

An incomparable and exclusive performance in which they will sing 'Vespers of the Cathedral of Orihuela', recovered thanks to a joint research project of the Higher Center for Scientific Research in which the University of Murcia participates.

The meeting will take place this Sunday at the Sanctuary of Santa Eulalia, in Totana, at 20.30.

THE SUCCESS OF ECOS FESTIVAL

From the 18th to the 28th of July, Aledo, Alhama de Murcia, Librilla, Mula, Pliego and Totana will be able to enjoy numerous experiences of ancient music, among which the concert that stands out for its mastery and professionalism with the strings and its international prestige the Argentine violinists Manfredo Kraemer and Guadalupe del Moral will offer.

The appointment will be next Friday July 27 at 9:00 pm in the cloister of the Convent of San Francisco, in Mula, where they will perform the program 'Three Centuries, Two Continents', with Hungarian, French, Brazilian and Argentine scores.

The success of the first four days of the ECOS Festival has been overwhelming.

At the level of attendance, it is worth noting that the first three concerts sold out, leaving the audience with full satisfaction that they transmitted to the artists at the end of each evening.

ECOS Festival began Wednesday 18th with the overwhelming triumph of Pablo Zapico and Daniel Zapico in the Estrecho de la Agualeja de Aledo;

Behind them, Baroque Imaginary surprised in the municipality of El Berro, and the trio Les Tambourins filled its two baroque music sessions at the Los Baños Archaeological Museum, in Alhama.

THE RESIDENT GROUPS

The poster for this edition is completed by the three international groups that attend this year's academic residency at ECOS Festival.
