Telling music with José Luis López Antón.

This initiative is a series of music appreciation talks led by Ávila-born conductor José Luis López Antón, principal conductor of the Avila Symphony Orchestra. He is considered one of the brightest prospects of the new generation of orchestra conductors in Spain. He has also conducted the Spanish Radio and Television Symphony Orchestra (ORTVE), the Castilla y León Symphony Orchestra (OSCyL), the Orchestra and Choir of the Community of Madrid (ORCAM), the Navarra Symphony Orchestra, the Malaga Philharmonic Orchestra, the Verum Orchestra, the Santa Cecilia Classical Orchestra, the Malaga Symphony Orchestra, the Castellón Youth Symphony Orchestra, the Segovia Orchestra, the Symphony Orchestra of the Polytechnic University of Madrid, the Zamora Youth Symphony Orchestra, the Contemporary Music Ensemble of the COSCyL, and the In Crescendo children's orchestra of the OSCyL socio-educational project. He has also conducted in major concert halls such as the National Auditorium in Madrid, the Palau de la Música in Barcelona and the Miguel Delibes Auditorium in Valladolid, among others.

Using accessible, familiar language and avoiding technical jargon, "Telling Music" seeks to promote the enjoyment of classical music through guided understanding, so that the public can gain a more concrete perception of the different stylistic currents in the History of Music.

On this occasion, he will delve into the work Pines of Rome.

Pines of Rome, or in Italian Pini di Roma, P 141, is a symphonic poem for orchestra composed by Ottorino Respighi in 1924. The program piece musically portrays various places in Rome with pine trees, specifically those in the gardens of Villa Borghese, near a catacomb, on the Janiculum Hill and along the Appian Way. It is part of the Roman Trilogy, being the second of his three symphonic poems about the Eternal City, following Fontane di Roma (1916) and preceding Feste romane (1928).

A musical story through the corners of Rome! Don't miss it.
