The Spanish guitarist Josep Maria Martí Duran is a very unusual musician: what interests him when he plays Baroque guitar and theorbo is to be as discreet as possible and allow the composer and composition as much space as possible to unfold. He has performed at numerous well-known festivals around Europe with renowned ensembles and conductors including Jordi Savall, René Jacobs, William Christie, Attilio Cremonesi and Alessandro de Marchi. Josep Maria Martí Duran has revived the early practice of transcribing opera music by G. F. Handel and H. Purcell for theorbo with unusual and haunting arrangements: heartfelt arias that touch us and will not let go. To hear them is to be moved by them.
