Nerea Berrondo, mezzo-soprano
and Pedro Gandía Martín, baroque violin

A rare performance of Spanish and Italian baroque music. Mezzo-soprano Nerea Berraondo brings her emotive voice back to the Lyra stage alongside violinist Pedro Gandía Martín as he explores the culture and music that so influenced modern violin playing.
