This work will be followed by the dance of planets and stars of La Lluna by ‎Ian Shaw, a work based on the poem by Jacint Verdaguer and winner of the second edition ‎of the El Cor Canta International Composition Competition for Choir and Orchestra. The ‎concert will be rounded off with a call for peace with Missa per la Pau (Mass for ‎Peace), by Salvador Brotons.‎  less
