One of the artists that performed en El Casino.

The Salón de los Espejos (Mirror Room) of the Casino has been the perfect setting, last Friday the 30th, for the performance of the multi-faceted artist Alberto Comesaña, that showed off, in this occasion his comic facet.

Comesaña, better known in the music world, for his interventions as a singer in music bands as “Semen Up” and “Amistades Peligrosas”, charmed and delighted a very numerous audience that assisted the show. He showed off, above all, his intelligent sense of humour, based on pure irony, with what declared by the artist, he pretends not only to make everyone laugh, but also to force people “to think”.

The artist entertained all of us there with a number of monologues having comic subtlety as the star of the show and dressed with, in a couple of moments, with music also used in a humorous way. The performance, included in the activity programme of the Casino for this Christmas season, also offered the performance of a young singer-songwriter, that was the opening act of the show.

The performance of this Choir from Molina de Segura (Murcia) started at 19,30 with the religious hymn “Exultate Iusti” and from then on, they alternated their songs with the celebration of mass.

The Assembly Room of the Casa de Cultura was the choosen setting for the performance

Members of the band organized a very original moment.

The Banda Titular that belongs to the Music Trust of Aguilas Francisco Díaz Romero offered, this past 29th of December, an Extraordinary Christmas Concert, being the conductor Juan Rojo García. All the members of this musical group created great excitement in the audience with the performance of the compositions “Symphony number 45”, “El Quijote”, “The Toy Sym phony” and “Call to Heros” amongst others.

Besides, and as a novelty this year, the members of the Band organized a very original setting: they lit up the stage with candles while performing “Symphony number 45”. In this way they wished to recreate the historical period that it belongs to.

We would also like to highlight the performance of Alonso Paredes with the masterpiece “El Quijote”.

Alonso Paredes was the narrator of a selection of passages of this great novel with the musical background of the band.

The performance came to an end with the Hymn “Águilas, Paraíso del Mediterráneo” (Águilas, Mediterranean Paradise”) and with the rapturous ovation from the audiencia, that once more, was very satisfied with the performance of the band.

There has been many acts programmed for this Christmas Season by the Musical Trust of Águilas, all counting with great acceptance.
