Candlelight: Tribute to Joan Manuel Serrat

At the Ateneo de Madrid, a string quartet will perform songs by Joan Manuel Serrat. The Candlelight concert will bring together familiar melodies in a candlelit hall, where you can listen to instrumental versions of “Mediterráneo” and “Cantares”.

The programme also includes “Lucía”, “Penélope”, “Barquito de papel” and other compositions. The violins, viola, and cello will give a new sound to songs many people recognise from their opening lines. No one will stop you from singing along in your head.

The evening will take place in a cultural institution with two centuries of history, of which Federico García Lorca was a member. Some of its spaces also appeared in the film “La Bola Negra” by Javier Calvo y Javier Ambrossi, so film lovers may recognise its interiors.
