Ferran Savall
Mireu el nostre mar
Alia Vox

Ferran Savall is the son of the renowned early music conductor, composer, and musician Jordi Savall and the equally revered singer Montserrat Figueras.

The young man has an enviable pedigree in the realm of classical music, and indeed, Ferran Savall has performed with his parents' ensembles Le Concert des Nations, and Hesperion XXI. On the haunting production Lachrimae Caravaggio, Ferran Savall's voice moves as if in a trance through the shadowy, droning improvisations under his father's direction, which becomes the audible equivalent of Caravaggio's black paint.

Mireu el nostre mar marks a bit of a departure for the Savall family's Alia Vox label, as the focus is not on the interpretation of early music or classical masterworks in the traditional sense. Instead, Ferran Savall presents a program of folk songs, many from the Catalan tradition, as well as Jewish song and the lyrics of poets.
