Bust, Concert Hall, Palau de la Musica Catalana, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain

Bust of Anselm Clave below a sculpture of a tree entitled Les Flors de Maig or the Flowers of May, representing Catalan folk music, by Pau Gargallo, and behind, mosaic of the musician Palestrina, around the stage in the Concert Hall, at the Palau de la Musica Catalana, built 1905-8 and designed by the Catalan Modernist architect Lluis Domenech i Montaner, 1850-1923, in Casc Antic, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. The hall seats 2015 people, has a Walcker pipe organ and stepped stage and is illuminated entirely during the day by windows and a huge stained glass drip-shaped skylight by Rigalt Granell & Cia.
