Franco Fagioli live in Barcelona

Experience Franco Fagioli live on November 30th

Franco Fagioli, a celebrated Argentinian countertenor, is scheduled to perform at the Palau de la Música Catalana in Barcelona, Spain on November 30, 2026. Fagioli is renowned for his virtuosic technique and expressive interpretations within the Baroque and bel canto repertoire. His performances frequently feature works by composers such as Handel, Vivaldi, and Porpora, often showcasing elaborate ornamentation and a remarkable vocal agility characteristic of the countertenor voice. He is particularly known for reviving lesser-known works from the 17th and 18th centuries alongside standard repertoire pieces.

The Palau de la Música Catalana, completed in 1908, is a landmark concert hall in Barcelona designed by Lluís Domènech i Montaner. A prime example of Catalan Modernisme (Art Nouveau), it was built as a social and cultural center for the Orfeó Català choral society. The building is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its architectural significance. Key features include its stunning stained-glass ceiling illuminating the central concert hall, intricate mosaics, and sculptural details inspired by nature and Catalan nationalism.
