TERRER FESTIVAL

LOS FUMERO
Saturday, November 18 at 7:00 p.m. €22
Cabacés Theater
Two musicians united by the same last name, which is already a living history of jazz in our country, present this exceptional project formed by the pianist and singer Lucia Fumero and the double bassist Horacio Fumero. Father and daughter show a natural complicity immortalized in their first duo album where you can listen to their own compositions such as Camino or Torcacita and their own arrangements of songs from the Latin American popular music repertoire.
SAN JOSEX & CARLES BELDA “CANTUT”
Saturday, December 2 at 7:00 p.m
€25 El Casal, Porrera

The two Carlos fully immersed themselves in the online songbook Càntut: Cançons de tradicione oral, promoted by the musicologist Albert Massip and which traces the footprint of oral tradition singing in the regions of Girona. Then he collected about a thousand recordings (now there are almost twice as many!) and from all of them they chose the fifteen songs that would end up making up the album that, as a tribute, they named with the same name as the songbook. Two musicians from Osona, the violinist Coloma Bertran and the multi-instrumentalist Jordi Casadesús, joined the adventure in order to transport this songbook to a new dimension, always with one foot clinging to tradition and the other playing with the avant-garde.

AND WE JOIN THE RECOGNITION OF…

AGUILÓ VINATERIA

Aguiló Vinateria, from Falset, won the prize as a best specialist shop at the International Wine Challenge Industry Awards Spain 2023 . These are prizes that have been awarded in the State for 8 years, although in the United Kingdom, where they were born, they have been awarded for 25 years and are highly prestigious.

Aguiló Vinateria is a historic establishment in Falset, specializing in Priorat and Montsant wines. As one of the heads visible in front of the company, Enric Aguiló, says, “I like to explain that, basically, we have grown in parallel with the wine resurgence of this region because thirty years ago most of the wineries that are there now, they simply did not exist. Almost everything is new projects. So it’s been our turn to evolve alongside them, and we’ve learned many things together. It has been our turn to be the commercial witness of an unusual oenological, winemaking and social resurgence”.

Enric Aguiló is very satisfied with the award received which, in his opinion, is also recognition of all the work that has been done in a small and rural territory such as the Priorat region.
