Bach-Madrid and Bach en Familia (Bach for the Family) have been part of CentroCentro’s activity since 2015. The 2018-2019 programme will focus on Bach but will also include a significant number of other important –and sometimes little-known– works by composers associated with the world referred to as Early Music, such as Händel, Monteverdi, Charpentier, Vivaldi and others. This season voice will stand out in both series with a programme of chamber operas like Acis and Galatea, as well as Monteverdi’s Madrigales.

In addition to the series of concerts, the project includes an educational bias with the Bach en Familia concerts, which are particularly geared towards children and their families.
