“Enjambres”, the work by Nuria Núñez Hierro, winner of the 39th Queen Sofía Prize, will be broadcast this evening on La 2 TVE.

On 27 February, the jury of the XXXIX Queen Sofia Prize for Musical Composition – made up of Baldur Brönnimann, Carlos Fontcuberta, Octavi Rumbau, Jesús Rueda and chaired by Marcela Rodríguez – awarded the prize to the composer Nuria Núñez Hierro (Jerez de la Frontera, 1980) for her composition Enjambres [swarms/hives] whose premiere took place last night at the Teatro Monumental in Madrid, performed by the Orquesta y Coro RTVE conducted by Pablo González.

The work awarded by the Fundació Ferrer Salat, which is endowed with 100,000 euros, will be performed again this evening at 19:30, in a programme that will be completed with the Glagolitic Mass by the Czech composer Leos Janácek, featuring the soprano Gun-Brit Barkmin, the contralto Anna Lapkovskaja, the tenor Ludivit Ludha and the bass Wojtek Gierlach. The concert will be broadcast with a half-hour time difference, at 20:00, as part of TVE’s Los Conciertos de La 2.
