«The music of Bernat Vivancos (Barcelona, 1973), somewhere between luminescence and asceticism, reviews the vocal religious tradition as well as modern sounds. The composer, has very close ties to the Escolania de Montserrat. His time at the monastery has made a mark on his career, which started at the Conservatoire de Paris and included studying under the guidance of Lasse Thoresen in Oslo, and which resulted in the development of a unique and unmistakable voice. His works include traces of the modal music of various Western vocal traditions and the search for lively and resplendent, incorporeal harmonies. Nature, the sound presence of faith and, ultimately, beauty, are the backbones of a particular musical world, powerfully human and gleaming, close and universal. Throughout this coming season, eight of the author’s works – five of which will see their world premiere at L’Auditori – provide the opportunity to access to one of the most fascinating sound universes in existence today.»
