Pepita Greus 5tet

Voyage ensoleillé au pays des fallas

Featuring original compositions alongside arrangements of Spanish popular melodies from the early 21st century, this program offers a true musical escape into the heart of Las Fallas, Valencia’s spectacular city-wide celebrations. Bursting with collective energy, vivid colours, and street-born fervour, the music evokes parades, brass bands, crowded squares, and nights that seem to glow with sound.

.

The repertoire blends today’s writing with echoes of tradition. Pepita Greus, written exactly a century ago in 1926, appears as a bridge between memory and modernity. The result is a sunny, rhythm-driven immersion, where Valencian heritage meets contemporary reinvention.
