Edition 2025

Chamber music and orchestra's students will celebrate the Early Music Day with a concert around baroque and classical music.

Musicians String quartet and strings orchestra of the Conservatori de Menorca

It is an interdisciplinary project that combines music, theater, dance, and audiovisuals, in such a way that, in the style of a zarzuela, we intersperse music and dance with theatrical scenes. Regarding the music, we perform various Spanish and Latin American pieces, both vocal and instrumental, from the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries.

On the theatrical side, we tell the story of the death of King Philip II through his final thoughts, memories, and interactions with the characters of Death and the ghosts of his wives. All of this unfolds as he gazes at the painting The Garden of Earthly Delights by Hieronymus Bosch, which the king himself had ordered to be placed at his deathbed.

Throughout the performance, the king journeys through the painting, drawing parallels between various details of the artwork and his own reflections. Likewise, each musical piece we perform is somehow connected to the monarch's thoughts and emotions and to the various details of the painting.
