The Museum's work dedicated to the Virgin of Montserrat by the painter Antonio Arias Fernández (c.1614–1684), a contemporary of Joan Cererols, inspires the scheduled concert. The oil brings together the characteristics of the model fixed in the baroque tradition. The Virgin Mary, with Saint John and Saint Margaret, sits on a throne, surrounded by schoolboy musicians playing the bassoon and cornet, with the background of the detail of the mountain. The baroque musical iconography is very rich and of great realism in terms of the detail of the instruments; we will be able to identify it in the musical formation that we will hear at the concert, those instrumental "other voices" that will emerge and grow towards serious tessitures, also establishing a close plastic connection with the taste for the darkness of the Baroque.
