Programme

THE SESSIONS FOR THIS CONCERT WILL BE MORE RELAXED.‎ RULES REGARDING NOISE AND MOVEMENT IN THE CONCERT HALL WILL BE MORE RELAXED THAN USUAL, AND ‎SOME MINOR ADJUSTMENTS MAY ALSO BE MADE TO THE LIGHTING, SOUND, ETC. FOR THE WELLBEING OF ALL ‎KINDS OF PUBLIC. THESE TYPES OF SESSIONS ARE FOR INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES WHO PREFER A MORE ‎CASUAL ATMOSPHERE, THEREBY REDUCING ANXIETY LEVELS AND MAKING THE EXPERIENCE BETTER FOR ‎EVERYONE (E.G. FAMILIES WITH SMALL CHILDREN, PEOPLE WITH ALZHEIMER’S, PEOPLE WITH AUTISM, ‎ETC.). 

An opportunity to discover the music of Jef Penders, a key name in the world of 20th century band music. Having taught himself some of the main wind instruments, he completed his training at the Maastricht Conservatory, where he became familiar with compositional technique and studied counterpoint and orchestration.

Although he was born in Holland, Penders also lived in Valencia for a time, where he had a considerable influence on other musicians. The concert will showcase his breadth of vision as a composer and the multiple influences on his musical style in swing pieces with a touch of nostalgia, such as Indonesian Boat Song, Blossom in a Japanese Garden, March of the Androids and the pasodoble La primitiva.

With the support of the European Union through the Interreg VI-A Spain-France-Andorra Program (Poctefa 2021-2027).
