Bigastro band will be playing a last rehearsal concert tonight in Almoradi ready for the Certamen at ADDA (Auditorio de la Diputación de Alicante) tomorrow.
Certamens are competitions that are very important for local bands. The first one we went to was again at ADDA where Bigastro won first prize and went on to play in a regional final at Valencia.
Needless to say, there have been many, many hours of rehearsal for this and the music chosen is about as difficult as it gets. One piece is set i.e. all three bands will play it. The others are chosen by the individual bands.
The judges know their stuff and will be following the musical scores to see how well the bands interpret the works.
As you can see from below, Bigastro will be the first band to play followed by the band from Cox and then the band from Torrevieja.
