Jordi Savall: Music's Greatest Time Traveller

from The Gould Standard · host The Glenn Gould Foundation

Jordi Savall is the greatest living specialist in Early Music. As a conductor, composer, and viola de gamba player, he studies music pre-dating Bach, performed with its specific instruments and styles. Savall has placed his passionate stamp on a repertoire spanning 1,300 years and ranging across Europe, the Middle East, the Balkans, Africa and the Americas. From rocking dance rhythms to sacred splendour, Savall makes the peoples of these distant times and cultures come alive again, sharing their joys and sorrows with us, and demonstrating that nothing human is ever beyond our empathy. In this rare conversation, the UNESCO Artist for Peace discusses his 50 years of bringing forgotten worlds to life.JORDI SAVALL: • Website • Music Label • Facebook • Instagram • WikipediaTHE GLENN GOULD FOUNDATION: • Official Website • Twitter • Instagram • YouTube Channel • Facebook • GGF on LinkedIn
