Lluc Casares, Joan Vidal, Néstor Giménez and Lluís Vidal, four of our most important arrangers and composers, took on the challenges currently facing the performing arts with this new and ambitious project BARCELONA ART ORCHESTRA whose first album is entitled Ragtime Stories.
Ragtime is the common denominator that ties together the eight pieces that make up this album. This timeless music is revisited with arrangements that range from the purely traditional to the avant garde. They serve as a showcase for the talent and versatility of the four composers/arrangers that lead this project.
BARCELONA ART ORCHESTRA is a stable formation made up of a large number of exceptional musicians featuring jazz instrumentation as well as classical and contemporary.
BAO embodies the will to explore different musical genres from a jazz perspective, in search of new relationships with other artistic disciplines such as theatre, danse, or poetry.
Ragtime Stories is possible thanks to the complicity of this group of musicians and composers who have consolidated this project with the release of this first album which will doubtlessly see BARCELONA ART ORCHESTRA become an important reference point for the current scene.
