The sixth edition of the Jordi Savall Festival concluded this past weekend with a notable public turnout, attracting nearly 12,000 attendees and achieving over 95% occupancy across its performances.

Several concerts sold out completely, demonstrating the audience's strong interest in the artistic program. This year's theme, 'Beyond the Eclipse,' served as the guiding principle for a lineup that explored the dualities of light and darkness, as highlighted by the organizers.
The festival has solidified its evolution into a platform for artistic creation, generating original projects. Notable among these are 'Dones d'Orient' and a moving tribute to Copernicus, performed by Hespèrion XXI under the direction of the renowned musician Jordi Savall.
The festival's closing event took place this Sunday at the Abbey of Santes Creus, featuring a concert that drew 1,200 people, marking it as the largest musical event ever held at this historic site.
