Daniel García heads this project that delves into the essential elements of Renaissance music. 

 

The Auditorio de Tenerife offers this Friday (14th), at 7:30 p.m., at the Chamber Hall the concert Beata Viscera, by Daniel García Trío, led by one of the most versatile and active jazz musicians of his generation, and the vocal quintet Vandalia, known for their historically informed vocal performances.

Throughout its history, jazz has been characterised by its harmonic freedom and improvisational genius. In turn, early music (from the Ars Antiqua up to the Renaissance, from Perotin to Gesualdo) found its most expressive language in dissonance and chromaticism.

Beata viscera is not a typical blend of styles from such different periods as jazz and Renaissance music, but rather, it delves into the essential elements of both: the modality, the colour, the creativity, the amazement, spirituality, and corpulence of this world, that, although entrenched in the 21st century, is still shaken by the same passions, interests, and doubts that moved the start of the Modern Era.

This project is led by the pianist, composer and producer Daniel García, who undertook academic training in Spain and Berklee and gained experience on the main jazz stages in Europe. He is accompanied in this trio by the two virtuosos Pablo Martín Caminero on bass and Borja Barrueta on percussion. In addition, the line-up is completed by the Andalusian polyphony group Vandalia, a benchmark of historically informed vocal performance in our country, made up of the soprano Rocío de Frutos, the countertenors Gabriel Díaz and Jorge Enrique García, the tenor Andrés Miravete and the bass Javier Cuevas.
