Piano Concert with Maria Dolores Gaitan

• Pianist Maria Dolores Gaitan will perform November 6, 2021, at the Cathedral Basilica in historic downtown.

  Part of an international collaborative event, the 1781 Tribute celebrates 240 years of friendship and cooperation between Spain and the United States. The international tour of eight concerts began with summer 2021 concerts in Madrid, Segovia and Menorca, Spain. The concerts continue this fall with appearances in Washington D.C., St. Petersburg, and Miami before culminating in St. Augustine. The St. Augustine concert will be live-streamed throughout the U.S. and in Spain.

  The final concert will be in Malaga, Spain, in December.

  Gaitán has distinguished herself as an artist “Marca España” (España Global) for her artistic quality research and as a representative of Spanish talent worldwide. She was chosen by the European Union National Institutes for Culture as a representative of Spanish musical culture in Italy, and she has given recitals and played with orchestras throughout Europe.

  During the concert, Gaitan will perform a duet by Manual de Falla with Jorge Pena, violist with the Jacksonville Symphony Orchestra and artist director of the St. Augustine Music Festival.
