CONCERT CORAL VEUS ALEGRES

La Coral Veus Alegres celebrates its 80th anniversary this year with an extraordinary concert paying tribute to eight decades of music and cultural life in Sant Hilari Sacalm. Throughout all these years, the choir has been much more than a musical ensemble: it has become a meeting place, friendship, and shared enthusiasm, where various generations of singers have made choral singing a way of living and being part of the community. To commemorate this milestone, the concert features a particularly significant program. The first part offers the performance of a collection of previously unpublished works by the Hilarienc composer Antoni Miralpeix, former director of the choir and a musician deeply connected to our organization. This work, full of sensitivity and expressive power, is presented for the first time before the public and constitutes a very special premiere. The second part, accompanied by the Cobla Bisbal Jove, the choirs will perform a sardana and a symphonic repertoire work for choir and cobla by the American composer E. Butler, arranged for cobla by our director Xavier Garriga. To this celebration are added the friend choirs Cor Lutiana, Cor Lutiana Jove, Cor Croscat, and the Coral Ariadna, who share this project with us and contribute to making this concert a great choral singing festival. An evening that aims to celebrate the path traveled during these eighty years and pay tribute to all the people who, with their dedication and affection, made the history of La Coral Veus Alegres possible.
