Special concert offered by Société Générale, patron of the Historical Performance Programme of the Reina Sofía School of Music.
In this concert, thanks to the collaboration of members of the baroque music ensemble Le Consort, together with former and current students of the School, we take a journey through the different styles of instrumental and vocal baroque music: beginning in Italy and continuing through England, Germany, France and Spain.
