On Saturday, 28 February, the Badalona Guitar Association organised a charity concert featuring five renowned guitarists at the Carmelite Church in Badalona. All proceeds from the voluntary donations were donated to BADALONA ACULL, a group of 40 organisations working to make Badalona a more welcoming and inclusive city.

 

The Badalona Guitar Association remains committed to bringing live music closer to all audiences, creating spaces where the passion for the guitar takes center stage. Our Autumn Concert, now in its 14th edition, has become a must-attend event for those who wish to enjoy musical excellence in a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

This year, we are proud to present Christopher Avilez, an outstanding classical guitarist from Mexico with six published albums and an impressive international career as a concert performer.

 

Ángel Jesús López, a guitarist from Almeria based in Barcelona, ​​has presented his project Beyond the Canon, a collection of excellent but little-known classical guitar compositions, created by authors - from the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries - not often scheduled in guitar concerts.

A few hours before his concert in Badalona (2/11/2024), Ricardo Gallén granted us an interview, which we recorded on video, and later we added excerpts from the magnificent recital he gave us that evening. We invite you to watch this work in which, between music, Gallén talks to us about his career, the world of guitar today, the difficulties faced by young guitarists, and reveals his special relationship with Badalona. It is the virtuosity and testimony of one of today's great guitarists. Activate English subtitles!
