We have been seeing the slow concept applied to many areas, from food, to tourism or even as a lifestyle. Taking this precept of living life more slowly, valuing and savoring each moment and everything that is closest to us, the Sons Solers festival was born in 2014. Located at Finca Mas Solers in Sant Pere de Ribes, its commitment is to a quality music program based on music made in the country and its own essence that makes it what they call slow festival. Valuing quality more than quantity, their promise is that there will be no queues, no crowds, no underhanded performances, no rush… All very slow and high quality.
The Finca Mas Solers, is the Old Grand Casino of Barcelona, ??surrounded by the Solers forest, the idyllic Monaco gardens and the Amphitheater of the estate, being an ideal setting for a festival that promotes the territory and encourages respect for nature. Among the artists that you will be able to see in this edition that will take place on July 7, there is Delafé and the Blue Flowers, Pau Vallvé, Da Souza, Marialluïsa, Crisbru or Eli Kapowski DJ.

Not everything is modern music in the festival scene, nor do they only happen in the summer. The International Music Festival ‘Classics L’Escala-Empúries’ is a good example of this, a festival with an extensive calendar, which runs from April to January of the next year, and which takes place in one of the most magical and historic enclaves of Catalonia, Empúries. The festival presents 15 concerts that seek excellence and stylistic variety. With a total of 24 artists, an orchestra and a choir from 6 different countries, the ‘L’Escala-Empúries Classics’ regain their internationality without forgetting the local musicians.
The chamber continues to be the base of the festival, with concerts that travel through classical music, opera and jazz, but also with solo and symphonic proposals, among which you can find concerts of Grands èxits de la música clàssica, del cinema i de the popular music; Brazil: Samba, Saudades, Waltz…; Preludes, nocturnes, prints, caprices; Jazz
