Culture takes stock of the Folk Festival of Cartagena 2017 (23/10/2017)

Another year the folk music has left a mark and a very positive balance for artists, public and organization in an edition that have passed some of the best Spanish formations of this genre and that has gathered several thousands of people during the three days around the nine events scheduled at a festival that has changed its dates this year from June to November,

Attendees to the concerts of the esplanade of the port have been distributed homogeneously during the three days of the festival, which has kept the esplanade of the Port of Cartagena very lively, highlighting Friday and Saturday nights by the large number of registered attendees.

On Friday we started with the band Murciana "Túa", which despite a cold night, endured an audience delivered to a repertoire of traditional music from Galicia, Ireland, Scotland and Asturias.

The second group of the night of Friday, "Badlands", knew to maintain the anticipation between the assistants with an impeccable sound.

Saturday morning The Charcos & The Katiuskas Band were the great surprise of children and adults with a dynamic and fresh performance that was a delight for everyone.

In the afternoon M. Lacroix brought us perfectly blended world music into a single session.

With a great night, it began at 22:00 with Los Hermanos Cubero, who wasted a lot of sympathy and whose lyrics were very celebrated by the public.

Xarnege were in charge of closing the night with a concert with different sounds.

On Sunday at 13:00 hours the turn of the Valencians Innerlands, a band with a sound that transports us to lands of the north that knew to connect with the public from the beginning that was waiting all the action.

In the afternoon and to close this short but intense festival, we moved to El Batel Auditorium to see one of the great European folk bands, Luar Na Lubre, in the only concert with entrance that was made in room B of the auditorium with an almost complete capacity.

Luar na Lubre performed an impeccable concert, vibrating all the audience who chanted their songs, acting as the finishing touch of a festival that the Department of Culture of the City of Cartagena has recovered for the second consecutive year with a desire for permanence and desire to become a reference of regional and national Folk festivals.
