The composer Agustí Borgunyó (1894-1967), from 1934 he worked for Alfred Wallenstein (who would later be the director of the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra) who asked him to compose pieces with the Hispanic flavour that had become so popular following the international success of Manuel de Falla. During that period and with this objective, Borgunyó composed the Suite per a viola, which included a movement entitled Gitanerías, and other works with a clearly Hispanic air, such as Danza ibérica, Nocturno sevillano or the Suite ibérica.This work, alongside Don Juan by Strauss and Pictures at an exhibition by Mussorsky will be interpreted by the Barcelona Symphony and Catalonia National under the baton of Eiji Oue, the next 21, 22, 23 and May 25 at the Auditorium of Barcelona.
