Coral Sauces School organizes the XIV Religious Choral Music Festival for March 16, 17, 18 and 21.
These concerts are possible thanks to the collaboration of the Department of Culture of the City of Cartagena.
On Friday, March 16, the concert will take place at 8:30 p.m. at the church of San Antonio María Claret (Calle Jabonerías).
The one on Saturday the 17th will be at the church of Santo Domingo (Calle Mayor) at 7:45 p.m.
On Sunday, March 18, the concert will begin at 12:45 in the Carmen church (Carrer del Carmen) and, finally, on Wednesday, March 21, in the church of San Vicente Paúl (Ramón y Cajal street) 8:15 p.m.
All these concerts will be held once the Mass ends and Pedro Andrés García will direct it.
The intention of the Coral Sauces School is to offer a sample of religious repertoire through a brief sample of different composers and eras.
SCHOOL CORAL SAUCES
The Coral Sauces School began its journey in 2001 with rehearsals that culminated in a first concert on November 21, 2002. In 2003 they participated together with Banda Sauces in the recording of the CD 'Semana Santa en Cartagena'.
Until today they have continued their trajectory participating in several samples of choral music without forgetting its main facet: training, as a school that it is.
