Composed by Martí Noguer, performance by violist Albert Coronado Daza and harpist Cristina Montes Mateo

Approached as a narrative, Portrait of Mariana of Austria for viola and harp encapsulates the life of Mariana through four introspective vignettes: Childhood, Marriage, Political Influence and Retirement. This piece was written by the Los Angeles–based Spanish composer Martí Noguer especially for the Museum’s presentation of Velázquez’s painting. The performance features two musicians from Spain: violist Albert Coronado Daza, a 2024 member of the Spanish Young Music Talents program, and harpist Cristina Montes Mateo, principal harpist for the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra. Co-presented with SPAIN Arts & Culture, the Cultural Office of the Embassy of Spain.
