The singer Elena Gadel faces a new challenge today in her prolific and brilliant career, with the absolute presentation of her new live album.
Specifically, he will premiere his brand new album La dona que em vesteix in room 2 of the Barcelona Auditorium (9:00 p.m.), as part of the Guitar Bcn festival. La Vanguardia subscribers have a 15% discount on the price of tickets, provided they are purchased at Entradas de Vanguardia.
Perhaps better known by the general public for her outstanding works in musical theater or her television presence, La dona que em vesteix (Global Music) is already the fourth album by the Barcelona singer and artist after Tocant fusta (2010), Madera ( 2012) and Delicate (2014).
As Gadel herself (Barcelona, ??1982) explains, the song that gives the album its title and that synthesizes its content, “I composed it one day when after much exposition I came home very exhausted and I thought how tired, although I like it a lot, this thing that women are required more than men to be well, to be great, to be educated, correct and not to leave the place they touch”.
“I come home so tired, my two children, ages 4 and 6, who are waiting for me… it really is tough, but here we are,” explains the actress from the series Com si fos ahir and a member of the jury for the Eufòria contest.
It had been eight years since she recorded new songs, and these were composed during the pandemic, which have given shape to a “very personal” work produced by Marc Parrot, which has added an attractive electronic varnish to the flamenco pop characteristic of the vocalist. In any case, she assures that on this album “I have risked more than ever”.
The fan has already had the opportunity to see two samples of its content. Last November the amorous Et confesso came to light, and already this year the very intense Lobo saw the light, which was accompanied by an impressive video clip signed by Ivan Labanda.
In today’s concert, says Gadel, “we will play the entire album and Toni Pagés will be on stage with me on drums and launching electronic stuff, Marc López on Spanish guitar, dancer Eli Ayala dancer and a very cool set created especially for the occasion and the concerts that will follow it”.
Although it has already rained, Gadel’s career can be said to have started as a contestant on the second edition of Operación triunfo and that she made her musical debut as her with the single Es por tí.
With all its numbers, it firmly established itself in highly successful musical shows such as Sea and Sky, The Little Prince, Cabaret or The Magic of Oz. To those that must be added his participation in talent shows such as O happy day or the aforementioned Eufòria.

Whatever happens, the artist faces a project with renewed enthusiasm that she assures is “a step forward, because I had always gone as a trio or duet with Marta Robles”. “Now I am realizing that I am getting into a good eggplant” although she assures that she will combine the new adventure of La dona que em vesteix with her concerts together with the aforementioned guitarist.
