[doversoul1]

Simon Heighes presents highlights from the Poblet Early Music Festival. The theme of the concert is 'Man and Nature', with sequences of music of Celtic dialogues between the Ancient and the New World. Jordi Savall goes back to original manuscripts to reveal the hidden beauties of Irish and Scottish music from the 17th to 19th centuries.
