The farewell to one of the greats of Catalan music
Cesk Freixas, one of the most emblematic names of Catalan music, says goodbye to the stage with a special concert scheduled for Friday, March 28. This event, which will take place at the Cultural Center El Teula de Cocentaina at 8:30 pm, represents a unique opportunity for all its followers to live the last recital of the artist in Valencian lands for an indefinite time.
A repertoire that celebrates his career
The concert, included in the Barnasants festival, promises a memorable performance with the complete band and a repertoire that gathers the most emblematic songs of his career. With topics that have marked a generation, Freixas will offer a night full of emotions and memories.
More than a musician: a cultural reference
Freixas has not only left a significant imprint on author and protest music, but also contributed to the literary world with works such as ‘Words for Gaeta’ and ‘Catalan tales of today and always’. With several Enderrock awards and recognitions such as the Joan Coromines National Prize, its influence extends beyond the stage.
Complementary activities to the concert
In addition to the concert, the same day a magnet and sheets workshop has been organized in the hall of the Cultural Center, linked to the exhibition ‘Spring Music’. This initiative highlights two decades of Valencian music from different angles, including social, literary and graphic aspects.
The opinion of the Councilor for Culture
Berta Iñíguez, Councilor for Culture of Cocentaina, has expressed his satisfaction to host this concert. In his words, ‘it is a real privilege to have Cesk Freixas in our village for his farewell tour. His music is a fundamental pillar of the author song and it is an honor to be part of the BarnaSants festival, which promotes reflection through music ‘.
