Benvingut Jonathan Nott

The legacy of Pau Casals with Jonathan Nott. 'Music, this universal language, is the voice of peace.' With these words, Pau Casals defined a conviction that crossed his entire artistic and human life. The Gran Teatre del Liceu dedicates this memorial concert, under the direction of Jonathan Nott, as a tribute to a figure who elevated music to moral conscience and artistic gesture to commitment with the world. Casals was not only one of the great cellists of the 20th century, but also a voice of ethical scope. Exiled for fidelity to his principles, he understood music as an act of responsibility, capable of preserving human dignity even in the darkest times. His legacy transcends interpretation: it is a way of listening, of resisting, and of waiting.
