Today, June 21, the ‘Music Festival’ is celebrated all over the world, and Murcia did not want to miss the opportunity to join an event that is, by definition, “festive, popular and spontaneous”, and that is aimed at all audiences with the aim of “valuing and promoting amateur music”. To do this, the association La Lanzadera, in collaboration with the City Council of the capital of Segura, has organized two free concert routes for the afternoon/evening today and tomorrow.
The first has already begun in the contrafachada of the Palacio del Almudí by the hand of the duo Komorebi and continues from eight o’clock with Parade on the Veronicas Wall. From nine o’clock at night it will be Alex Juarez who takes the lead Temple of the Artillery Barrackswhile the proposal will become somewhat more experimental from 10:00 p.m., when they will go up to that same stage Sofia Bartomeu and the members of the circus trio Mainama. To close this first day, at 11:05 p.m. it has been scheduled in the outside garden of the Museum of the City with a musical improvisation show with the abaranero saxophonist Jose Joaquin Aroca and the teacher John Jesus Yelo.
These latest performances -if we follow them from the point of view of what is different, of what is truly alternative- will continue during the first part of the route on Tuesday, which will begin at 7:00 p.m. in the Plaza de los Derechos de la Infancia del Jardín de Silk with the collective Tecné, made up of eight teachers from the Conservatory. They will present a show with “current minimalist-inspired music” that they have called resonances and that he will bring out room instruments such as a grand piano or a marimba. They will be followed, at 8:00 p.m. in the amphitheater of La Seda, by the trio Harar, a polypoet, a guitarist and an electronic musician who will offer a product in which the spoken word prevails. And from eight o’clock until midnight, at Molinos del Río, an own production: the “operetta jam” by White Coco. “It’s the most risky proposal on the program,” acknowledged Miguel Tébar last week, the main person in charge of this ‘Fiesta de la Música’. And it is that those responsible have entrusted «with closed eyes» to Gonzalo Artaza, AKA ‘Guapo Diablo’, to lead an «unpredictable» group that will fuse urban music with jazz, Latin rhythms and improvisation. “They are very young people, and we expect anything from them,” says their main supporter, laughing.
Although Tuesday’s program does not end there. Crudo Pepper They will be in charge of closing the Plaza de los Patos de Vistabella from 10:30 p.m., but earlier – from 9:15 p.m. – there will be space for The Malinches unfold their pop psychedelia in that same space.
