Dos Capricis. Spanish and Italian. Symphonic Band Unió Musical de Lleida https://www.paeria.cat/ca/actualitat/agenda/dos-capricis-espanyol-i-italia-banda-simfonica-unio-musical-de-lleida-1 https://www.paeria.cat/@@site-logo/barra-logo.jpeg The BSUM Lleida presents a programme centred on the musical form known as capriccio, an Italian term that, since the Renaissance, but with special fortune among Romantic and nationalist composers of the 19th century, serves to identify an orchestral work of free structure and virtuosic character that, with a descriptive spirit, exalts, by idealising them, themes and motifs proper to cultures considered "exotic" by their authors. Two of the maximum exponents of this aesthetic, which we have chosen for this concert, are Capriccio Italiano (1880) and Capriccio Español (1887), by the Russian masters, respectively, Piotr Ilich Tchaikovsky and Nikolai Rimsky Kòrsakov.
