Tenor Roger Padullés and pianist Tomeu Moll-Mas help us rediscover the vocal work of one of Catalan noucentisme's most remarkable musicians.

Majorcan musician Baltasar Samper i Marquès (1888–1966) was multi-talented, not only a performer and conductor but also a critic and researcher in the field of ethnomusicology during the Catalan noucentisme period. As a member of the group Independent Composers of Catalunya, which also included Blancafort, Gerhard, Toldrà and Mompou, he strove to renew and reappraise traditional aesthetics and culture. His compositions combined innovative, revolutionary airs from the music of the first third of the twentieth century with traditional popular music.
