Ana López Suero

The moment Columbus set sail for the New World in 1492 is often considered the moment when the course of world history changed. In Seville, the Casa de Contratación was founded to encourage overseas trade - including the trade of musical instruments and sheet music for social and religious practices. In this short lecture, Ana López Suero gives an overview of daily musical practice in the city of Seville around that time.

Tickets can be reserved for free from Wednesday 14 August.
Language: English

Due to personal circumstances, Tess Knighton will be replaced by Ana López Suero.
