Musicians have always been a travelled lot. The busiest and most restless among them sometimes even had difficulties remembering where their original home was. Music, however, makes no such distinctions: it is home anywhere in the world, as the fates of many of the famous Venetians and other globe-trotters like Baldassare Galuppi, Tomaso Albinoni, Domenico Scarlatti, Antonio Vivaldi, and George Frideric Haendel prove. At the end of July, the ensemble Vespres d’Arnadí from Spain will take us to the crossroads of Baroque musical journeys, Venice, Naples, and Madrid. Vespres d’Arnadí takes its name from the legendary dessert from southern Valencia. The voice of the illustrious Spanish soprano María Espada in the beautiful acoustic of the Troja Chateau in Prague will sound just as delicious.
