Jordi Savall i Bernadet (born 1941, in Igualada, Catalonia, Spain) is a Spanish-Catalan viol player and composer. He is one of the major figures in the field of early music since the 1970s, largely responsible for bringing the viol (viola da gamba) back to life on the stage. His repertory ranges from Medieval to Renaissance and Baroque music.
Savall's musical training started in the school choir of his native town (1947-55). He later completed his training at the Barcelona Conservatory of Music (1959-65).

Savall's musical training started in the school choir of his native town (1947-55). He later completed his training at the Barcelona Conservatory of Music (1959-65). Afterward, he began his specialisation in early music at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis in Basel, Switzerland (1968-70).
In 1974 he formed the ensemble Hespèrion XX (since 2000 as Hespèrion XXI), together with the soprano Montserrat Figueras (his wife), Lorenzo Alpert and Hopkinson Smith. Hespèrion XX favored a style of interpretation characterised by great musical vitality and at the same time, maximum historical accuracy.
In 1987 he returned to Barcelona to found La Capella Reial de Catalunya, a vocal ensemble devoted to the interpretation of music prior to the 18th century.
Finally, in 1989 Savall created Le Concert des Nations, an orchestra that is generally dedicated to the baroque repertoire, but which sometimes also serves as an outlet for music that hails from the classical/romantic repertoire (e.g. Sinfonia a Gran Orquesta by Juan Crisótomo de Arriga).
Savall's discography includes more than 140 recordings. Since 1998 he has released his records with his own label, Alia Vox.
Jordi Savall is also a two-time Grammy nominee, who scored the 1991 Alain Corneau film, Tous les matins du monde (also awarded the César of the French film industry in 1992). The soundtrack, re-released on his own Alia Vox label, has sold more than a million copies worldwide.

pedro a. cantero
Tras el preludio de Saint Colombe, tratado con exquisita sobriedad, entre la ensoñación y el abandono aflora la nostalgia en La Rêveuse. Territorio fronterizo de frágil misterio. Al trato de por sí elegante que caracteriza la escritura de Marais, Jordi Savall induce carácter y color. Aludiendo a la hondura del tema, logra una expresividad conmovedora apenas atenuada por el arabesco final. Gran interprete, este catalán universal logra hacerme vibrar en cuanto ofrece, al modo de las claves que abren arcanos inescrutables. Esta es, sin duda alguna, la mayor virtud de su arte. Entendida como capacidad de liberar toda tensión interna y encarar cuanto se presenta con temple cabal. Y una lección mayor, no ofrecer resistencia para lidiar cuanto advenga. Ante la adversidad, cabe tener en cuenta la vieja historia china de los dos tigres. Al modo de las fresas silvestres, la nostalgia puede librarnos.
