As part of the celebrations for Día de les Illes Balears, a chamber ensemble from the Orquesta Sinfónica Illes Balears will present a free concert on 2 March 2026, at 12:00 noon, in the S’Aljub space of Es Baluard Museum of Contemporary Art in Palma. Admission will be free of charge until full capacity is reached.

The performance offers a carefully curated musical journey that blends classical tradition, operatic lyricism and Mediterranean character. The programme has been specially designed for this occasion, and features works by renowned composers such as Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Pietro Mascagni, Giacomo Puccini and Georges Bizet, alongside compositions by E. Pastor and A. Mairata, which are deeply rooted in the musical heritage of the Balearic Islands.
