Duo Gimeno-Sanchís

The Instituto Cervantes Manchester, in collaboration with The Iberian and Latin American Music Society, is pleased to present Aires de España, a selection of Spanish repertoire that includes some of the most iconic soprano romanzas from Spain’s lyrical heritage.

On this occasion, we will enjoy the Dúo Gimeno-Sanchís, with the soprano Aida Gimeno García and the pianist Carlos Sanchís Aguirre presenting a programme that highlights Siete canciones populares españolas by Manuel de Falla, alongside pieces by Bautista and Falla in collaboration with the renowned writer María Lejárraga, and concludes with a selection of zarzuela arias by José Serrano, Miguel Marqués, and Ruperto Chapí, celebrating the vitality of this lyrical heritage.

Dúo Gimeno-Sanchís are the winners of two awards at El Primer Palau 2022 in Barcelona, and participants in the MUSAE 2023 and AIE 2024 programmes, the duo formed by Aida Gimeno and Carlos Sanchis aims to explore the repertoire for voice and piano, offering a fresh perspective through carefully-designed programmes around different themes.
