Ensemble to perform music by Latin poet-composer

On April 20, the Basel-based ensemble, La Morra, will present a concert at the Forbidden City Concert Hall in Beijing, with music by Latin poet-composer Petrus Wilhelmi de Grudencz, a name not very familiar to Chinese audiences.

"The programs are not even familiar to audiences in Europe," says Polish lutenist Michal Gondko, co-director of the ensemble.

"People come to our concerts and read the program. But they don't know the music."
