Francisco António de Almeida and the Music of the Patriarchal
Concert performed by the vocal group Capella Joanina, under the direction of João Paulo Janeiro. This group consists of a group of solo singers who make the practice of ancient music one of the most relevant lines of work of their professional career, both in Portugal and abroad. The show proposes a rediscovery of the work of one of the most important Portuguese composers of the eighteenth century, recreating the musical atmosphere of the Patriarchal of Lisbon.
