ALICANTE: CoroDelantal MACA

CoroDelantal is a vocal experimentation group founded in New York City in 2011, replied in Madrid at the end of 2012, and currently based at the Museum of Contemporary Art of Alicante (MACA) since fall 2021. Conceived and directed by composer Sonia MegĂ­as LĂłpez as a laboratory for developing unusual scores, the chorus operates through collective performances that blur the boundaries between the arts.

The proposal for fall 2025 will consist of a three-month workshop with weekly meetings lasting two and a half hours each. The following collaborations are highlights of this quarter:
– With Madrid-based composer Marisa Manchado, winner of the 2024 National Music Composition Award, who will be our guest artist for the quarter.
– With New York composer John Gilbert, whose Christmas carols we will revisit in collaboration with the Banda UniĂłn Musical de Santa Pola, adapting them to a small format to be performed at the MACA.

ALICANTE: “Cantos pasados y presentes” by CoroDelantal MACA

 

CoroDelantal MACA presents a new show: Cantos pasados y presentes (Past and Present Chants), with great surprises.

Taking the chance of ‘All Hollows In’ night, we’ll close the show with our traditional songs and poems to our ancestors, honoring our friands and relative that left us recently.

We have a plus this time, since the theater is directed by one of our new members: actress Amparo Ausina.
Yeeeehaaaa! A hurray for CoroDelantal!

ALICANTE: Marisa Manchado, nuestra artista invitada

This season, CoroDelantal is honored to welcome composer Marisa Manchado (2024 National Music Award winner) as our guest artist. She is composing a piece for us, commissioned by MACA Museum, in which she’ll use branches and other natural elements from the area.

The premiere will be performed by the Gran CoroDelantal at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Alicante on Sunday, November 30, at 12:00 p.m.
