Auditorio de Tenerife offers, within its  Chamber Cycle , the concert De Umbrarum (From the Shadows) , performed by El Afecto Ilustrado , the countertenor  Hugo Bolívar (replaces Carlos Mena, who left due to illness) and the soprano  Jone Martínez . 

 

From the Latin From the Shadows , De Umbrarum is made up of two intimately related works. Both address musically the pain associated with the Virgin Mary before the Passion and Death of her Son, following the pattern of the famous medieval sequence of the Stabat Mater Dolorosa . But, in addition, the two works follow one another immediately in a timeline, being commissioned by the same body, the Confraternità dei Cavalieri di San Luigi di Palazzo . This historical fact turns tonight's program into a special confrontation of both works as an altarpiece ; in a beautiful opportunity to address two spiritual meditationson the same topic, aimed at the same end, and with similar rhetorical mechanisms, but not the same. Two different personalities creating a musical discourse on one of the Marian passages that has aroused the most artistic activity over time.
