Symbolic theatre and loyal audience
Yesterday, Silvia Pérez Cruz closed the ÍTACA 2024 Festival with a concert on the emblematic stage of the Cantada d’Havaneres de Calella de Palafrugell, located on the beach of Port Bo. In front of 2,000 spectators and with all the tickets sold out, the artist from Palafrugell gave an unforgettable show. This closing concert was in harmony with the rest of the events of the 12th edition of the Festival, which was marked by the success of the public and the quality of the performances.
Festival director Fran Arnau assured Radio Palafrugell that there are many good artists in Baix Empordà. That’s why they love to have some.
Expected return after more than a decade
Silvia Pérez Cruz closed a symbolic circle with her return to this stage after 11 years. On July 7, 2013, the singer inaugurated the Cantada d’Havaneres stage during the second edition of the festival. Accompanied by her regular musicians, Bori Albero (double bass) and Marta Roma (cello), and in a special collaboration with the Cuban troubadour Rolly Berrio, Pérez Cruz gave a unique concert. In addition, a choir made up of former colleagues from the Palafrugell School of Music also took part, adding an emotional touch to the evening.
A musical journey through the years
Silvia Pérez Cruz presented her latest album “Toda la vida, un día”, a reflection on life and death, while showcasing some of the most notable songs in her repertoire. Her voice is impressive by fusing the famous Iberian and Latin American song with jazz and classical music, captivating the audience. Through her special connection with the audience, the singer demonstrated her ability to transcend musical genres and offer a unique experience.
