Salvador Brotons i Soler

Catalan composer, flutist and conductor

Salvador Brotons (born 17 July 1959) is a Catalan composer, conductor, and flautist. He is the conductor of the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra in Vancouver, Washington and, since the 2022-2023 season, has also been the principal conductor of the Orquestra Simfònica Sant Cugat.

Salvador Brotons is a contemporary Catalan composer, with a repertoire performed worldwide. As a composer, he has written more than 170 works, including symphonic, concertante, chamber, choral music, operas, sardanes, and even a children's story. Faithful to his language, he has maintained melody and tonality, without atonality to condition his style. As a conductor, with an international career, he conveys passion to both musicians and audiences. His work as a conductor has also involved programming responsibilities, and in this regard, Brotons has always balanced major works from the international repertoire with compositions by contemporary Catalan musicians.
