The new programme

The Unión Musical de San Miguel de Salinas and the Sociedad Unión Musical de Bigastro will be playing in a joint concert on Saturday at 8pm in the Auditorio Municipal "Francisco Grau" .

This concert marks the beginning of the new cultural programme that the Council of Culture of the City council of Bigastro has prepared for us.

According to the Concejal de Cultura, José Espinosa, the Auditorio Municipal must become a point of contact and reference for the leisure in the society of the region but more important should be be the host of cultural activities.

On the 1st and 2nd of December, the Auditorio Municipal "Francisco Grau" is honoured to host the IX Certamen Comarcal de Interpretación Instrumental "Vega Baja – Baix Vinalopó". Over 200 students from 21 Musical Societies of the Vega Baja and the Baix Vinalopó will be participating as finalists in the different categories both as individuals and in groups.

The judges will include D. Francisco Grau Vegara (Colonel Director of the Band of His Majesty the King) and president D. Manuel Gutiérrez Lopez (Director of the Society Musical Union of Bigastro).


PS You may rmember from a previous post that Francisco Grau was born in Bigastro and was a member of the Union band.
