The Israeli Vocal Ensemble 
Nueva Manteca Band (The Netherlands)
Conductor: Yuval Benozer

Dutch pianist Jan Hartong spent a long time in Cuba and specialized in Afro-Cuban music. After the success of his Afro-Cuban Sanctus, Hartong wrote the Requiem para el Mundo, which combines the text of the Latin Requiem prayer with Afro-Cuban music. Jan Hartong’s composition is performed by the Israeli Vocal Ensemble together with Nueva Manteca Band from the Netherlands, one of the leading bands in the field of Latin music in Europe.

* This concert was supposed to be held in 2023-24 season, but was cancelled due to the war.

The Mediterranean sun and the lively Italian temperament are what made the Gloria of the Italian composer Antonio Vivaldi his most popular choral work. Surprisingly, the Vesperae written by the 23-year-old Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart for the Salzburg Cathedral also bring with it an almost Mediterranean temperament, originating from the young and stormy Mozart’s visits to Italy.
