Comments

Issued in blister.

The Orquestra Pau Casals (Spanish: Orquesta Pau Casals) was established by Pablo Casals (in Catalan Pau Casals) in the early 1920s in Barcelona, with the debut performance taking place October 13, 1920. There had been other orchestras in Barcelona, but none that played with any enduring success. The orchestra was managed by a group of Casals' friends including Felip Capdevila and Casals' second wife Francesca.
