The concert to celebrate foto oscar 5 years of Cervera Easter Festival foto oscar is a synthesis of the values and purposes with which we founded the proposal. On the one hand the demand and dissemination foto oscar of Catalan classical music, musical heritage and historic composers and performers of today. Today we have two works by contemporary authors of different generation, foto oscar in addition to present unpublished work of Catalan composers even strangers, like Joan Manén.

Today, many Cerverina involved from the stage, and the national media this potential spread throughout the country. And finally, in order to bring the festival to a broad and diverse audience, and therefore proposed to combine demanding more popular repertoires.

As a metamorphosis melody of the three drums, in the case of fanfare with which we began this celebration of 80 years of Jordi brain. Become gloss to achieve features symphonic poem in the hearts of Manén and instrumental material as air sardanas in the case of Catalan Rhapsody for piano and orchestra. A work that led to incomplete until recently (only kept the piano solo) and a recent finding allows us to recover the full score for the first time today. foto oscar Is another demonstration of the love of music Manén Catalan roots, avoiding label that brought many Catalan composers whose music has only been reported Hispanic ("Iberian" Manén would say).

Joan Albert Bitter drank also of contemporary popular foto oscar music to forge a work that demonstrates the compatibility of both attractive and interesting music. Mil.lenarium will hear an opening charge for the millennium Sant Cugat (2003), which contains a combination of ancient and modern rhythms and sounds, many colors and harmonic freshness and vitality. But I have always admired the art and craft of the arrangement, which is dignified Bitter with its quality and originality.
