What’s on offer
The Cambra al Palau series dedicates its twenty-ninth programme to Joaquín Nin (1879–1949), a Cuban-Spanish composer and pianist whose work explores the fusion of Spanish folklore and early 20th-century European musical currents. Pianist Pablo Martínez performs a monographic programme featuring selected pieces by Nin, preceded by a lecture by musicologist Justo Romero, a specialist in Spanish and Latin American music. According to Palau de la Música, the format aims to "balance tradition and modernity", a hallmark of the series’ programming.
Who’s performing
- Pablo Martínez: An internationally acclaimed pianist, recognised for his interpretations of Spanish and Latin American repertoire. He has collaborated with orchestras such as the Orquesta de Valencia and the Sinfónica de Madrid.
- Justo Romero: Musicologist and lecturer, author of studies on composers like Falla, Albéniz, and Nin himself. His talk will contextualise the composer’s work within the musical avant-gardes of his time.
Programme and duration
The event combines Romero’s lecture—duration unspecified—with Martínez’s recital, which will include works such as Danza ibérica and Suite española, according to sources from the series. The total approximate duration is 90 minutes, with no interval. The Palau does not specify the exact order of the pieces, but the usual structure of Cambra al Palau places the talk before the concert.
Prices and tickets
General admission costs €10 and grants access to both parts of the programme. There are no discounts or specific passes for this concert. Tickets are available on the Palau’s website and at the box office, with no additional fees.
