(Català) Orgue Montserrat Torrent

On December 3, 2021, the Montserrat Torrent organ was inaugurated in an event presided over by Cardinal Joan Josep Omella with the representation of the state’s cultural institutions such as the Minister of Culture Mr. Miquel Iceta, the Minister of Culture Natàlia Garriga and Jordi Martí, Culture Councilor of Barcelona City Council.

A blessing ceremony was held by the cardinal who pronounced the invocations of the blessing ritual, written by the poet Narcís Comadira for this occasion. The organ responded with a series of improvisations by organist Juan de la Rubia.

The musical moments of the ceremony were provided by the San Jordi Choir accompanied by the titular organist Bernat Bailbé.

The event was completed with a concert by Montserrat Torrent herself, who at 95 gave a musical lesson again.
