Tribute to Raimon

A concert paying tribute to Raimon, a figure of the Catalan nova cançó, with songs such as « Qui a tindrà un amic » and « Diguem no », at the Palau de la Música Catalana in Barcelona.

Raimon is a leading figure of the nova cançó, the Catalan-language song movement that emerged in the 1960s, and was born in Xàtiva (Valencia). His work belongs to the tradition of singer-songwriting in Catalan. Among his best-known songs are « Qui a tindrà un amic » and « Diguem no ».

This concert is a tribute to Raimon's work, not a performance by the original artist. His repertoire is the core of the proposal, performed by the musicians who make up the project, in a format designed for those interested in Catalan singer-songwriter music and its legacy.

The Palau de la Música Catalana is a modernist building by Lluís Domènech i Montaner, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1997. The venue, with its stained glass and mosaics, is one of the landmarks of Catalan modernism and a venue for concerts in Barcelona.
