26th May 2007 following a concert of pasedobles
Maestro D. José Navarro Roser of The Musical Union of San Miguel de Salinas honoured D. Manuel LORCA for 54 years of tireless work for the orchestra –
And Manolo, he said, was not even an accomplished musician. Retiring this week, it was said of him that it has so often been Manolo who has made many
speeches to thank others, that his work has touched so many people’s lives and that he has always been there in some capacity – secretary, treasurer and any other task asked of him. Always the first to rise, there was never an
occasion during those years when the company arrived at the conservatoire on Día de Santa Cecilia to find the tables bare – he always put tortas and the beverage fresquita out for the celebration.
He has swept the floors, patched the seats of the auditorium and been a father to every member of the band; he has followed the band for every performance and the Musical Union of San Miguel de Salinas would have been the poorer without his faithful services.
D. Manuel LORCA and his wife were honoured with the congratulations of the Band and a presentation on his retirement. |

Music knows no bounds...
This is the philosophy of Alpengold with some
30-35 musicians who meet weekly to rehearse
a wide variety of music in order to provide
programmes for concerts, fetes, and fund
raising for charities. Their repertoire,
which varies widely, includes marches, light
classics, Broadway and West End productions,
and Christmas carols.
The members come from a wide
variety of backgrounds from countries within the EU. Their standard of
musicianship ranges from ex school band players through to military and ex professional. |

In addition Basil also attended the renowned Royal Military School of Music, Kneller Hall where he studied trumpet and cornet as well as harmony, instrumentation and conducting.
The Band welcomes players with some experience, preferably with a minimum playing standard of Grade 5. Apart from the month of August, Alpengold Showband rehearses every Tuesday at 1 pm at La Marquesa Band Room, near Torrevieja.

For a small town San
Miguel de Salinas makes a significant
contribution to music. Musical
talent has been nurtured because it is
very important in Spanish culture,
perhaps more so than in the countries of
the UK. Musical excellence is not
achieved easily. It relies on endless study and practise and
dedication to a group to create harmony, balance
and imaginative interpretation.
Our prestigious conservatoire - La Unión Musical de San Miguel de Salinas
has been influential in nurturing that musical
excellence for many generations and our photo
shows The Band in the year of its constitution in 1927.
Music is a very important vein that runs
through the youth in the community and this
article features all the Bands of San Miguel de
Salinas, which include some of the 'offshoot' smaller groups who favour punk, jazz or even folk
music. Musicians can be heard practising around
the pueblo, not just at the conservatoire but
also in the odd garage for a mad jamming
session.

'La Unión Musical de San Miguel de Salinas'
 |
The first musical seed was sown in San Miguel of Salinas
around 1880 when a group of enthusiastic people joined
together to learn music under the direction of the
Maestro, a man called Vallejos. But it would take many
years before their endeavors would come to fruition.
Finally in 1927 La Unión Musical de San Miguel de
Salinas was constituted with the support of cultural
funding and under the baton of Maestro, D. Aureliano
Baches, a man of great musical and organizational
ability.
As with all great enterprises many changes of circumstances
and fortune occurred over the years and The Musical
Union went into decline only to rise again in 1977, when
some of the older musicians of the town wanted to revive
their musical culture. This vision was inspired by the
Maestro D. Antonio Vicente. He directed the revival for
seven years before yielding his baton to our current
Musical Director, the Maestro D. José Navarro Roser. |
This is not just a town band; it is a talented orchestra with
staggering music ability. Amongst their achievements they can list a 1st prize at International
Level in Valencia, seven 1st prizes in Provincial, Regional and National Level at competitions
in Leganés, Cheste, Segorbe, Cocentaina, Alicante, Pego and most recently in the City of Murcia for the
XIV Certamen Nacional de Bandas de Música "Ciudad de
Murcia" 2004. They can also add three 2nd prizes in
contests of provincial and national level and a 3rd prize at national level.
This level of achievement can only be reached with the
enthusiasm of every member of the Musical Union and it
is an inspirational example to the youth of San Miguel
de Salinas to perpetuate our musical heritage and
culture.
The Directors of The Musical Union recognized that they
should think of the future, notwithstanding that their
students were now studying at the conservatories of
Murcia, Alicante and Paris. As the Municipal School of
Music the idea was conceived in 1996 to form a Youth
Band for the younger members.
Another of the great achievements of The Musical Union
was to create an Annual Summer Music School, bringing
together more than 120 students from around Spain and
professors of great national and international prestige.
The interchange of talent and ideas has established an
event that produces more musical excellence.
There is much pride that our Musical Union of San Miguel
de Salinas has been the nursery of many professional
musicians that have gone on to make great contributions
of the highest level to many National and International
Orchestras. And this is a measure of our small town band
– La Unión Musical de San Miguel de Salinas.

Biografía: Serion was conceived in October
2000. It was formed by four individuals who met in a local
cafeteria – Pepe’s - to eat. They called themselves
Sentence and their initial style was somewhat
different to the Band’s sound of today. It was a sort of
mixture between Punk and Hard Rock and since then the
sound has evolved to one of sheer Heavy Metal.

The first members of
the band were Aledo and Java on the guitar, Pepe on bass
and Manuel on the drums. Although initially they did
not have vocal content later in the same year they
recruited new members Elías and Víctor, who sang with
the band. Shortly after, Elías left the band leaving
Víctor to provide the voice of Sentence.
Sentence began to
perform at various concerts in the Towns around The Vega
Baja, and with every appearance they gained confidence
and transformed their style of music into what audiences
enjoy so much today. The band members stayed the same
and the evolved style of music heralded a new phase in
the band’s development…and a new name Serion.
It was then when
they decided to cut their first record - ‘The End of the
Bospue' – in 2002 that subsequently gave name to a
theme. This was recorded at the studios of the ‘Seor
Guindilla Recorda’, and produced by Javier Desiderio and
Jes of Voice of the Cradle. |
|
 |
Serion has continued
to perform concerts all over the Province of Alicante,
joining up with groups such as Porretas, Boikot, Ponchok,
Arrasando Zepas, Copue Malla, etc. They have also
participated in various contests for music of this
genre.
It was in September
of 2004 when Serion would record its first album
entitled ‘Breaking the Silence'. This first LP is
composed of ten pieces - ten themes, and was cut in the
studios of Lorca Productions, with Manuel Torrogosa
directing the production.
|
|
At present they have
a number of concerts planned with big artists of the
size of ‘Lust’ or ‘Medina Azahara’, with whom they
played during the San Miguel de Salinas Fiesta 2005. And
they rocked the Church Square on 30 June 2006 |

| Biografía: Three
mates decided to form a small group so they got
together some instruments and had a go. But it was a
bit limited without drums and instruments to make
the sound they wanted. So they asked around and
others got involved. After a lot of sessions, with
some musicians coming and some going, they finally
hit the notes they were after and the survivers
called themselves
Katástrofe. This is just one of the true
bands of San Miguel de Salinas.

Biografía: Bored at School one morning Sergio decided to form a Group, little knowing that his mates Pepe and Jose Carlos had the same idea. Time passed and the summer came..it was time. No gear…except Toreli’s dad had an acoustic guitar. They practised a lot and then Toreli got hold of an electric guitar, which he taught himself how to use in a week. They began by doing versions of numbers by other groups, notably Ska-p y Tierra Santa, but it was time to be original…compose something. But this created a dilemma…what kind of group were they going to be? ¿punk or heavy? The group decided on Punk Rock. |
| Then came their first single: "Trash Polítika", and later others called "Screwed cretin" and "Pikoleto Kabron". Now was the time for their concert debut, which turned out to be in Christmas week at The Casa Cultura here in San Miguel de Salinas. They played with other groups Stropizio, Matorrales y Lucha sin descanso and it was a great success, especially as they recruited two friends Luis and Efren who gave the added dimension of the trombone and trumpet to the sound. The end result was a Punk Group of seven musicians playing music in the style Ska-oi!. Sin Tregue, literally “no surrender” was born.

name ‘Djokoto’ derives from an African dialect meaning ‘Heat of the
Germans’ and the troupe is made up of professional dance artists from
different countries, including the Ivory Coast, Burkina Faso, Togo and
Ghana. Their spectacular show features traditional African Dance and
Music in colourful costumes bringing their audiences an insight into
this true and original African art form.
Papa Borrega and Crema de Gallega
brought us the Bagpipes. Bagpipes or gaita were broadly played in Galicia in the middle
ages. There are reproductions of bagpipers in Romanic churches and
Monasteries built in the XI century and pictures of bagpipers in the
Court of the King Alfonso X El Sabio, dating back to the XIII century.
Galician bagpipes come in lots of flavors and there used to be bellows blown gaitas
galegas or 'gaita de barquén', but they are scarce now. The most
popular the gaita galega or the Galician bagpipes is mouth-blown and it
is similar in physical appearance to Great Highland Bagpipes. A minor
difference is the shape of the bag. A major difference is the number and
position of the drones. The gaita galega has from one to three drones.
The bass drone always leans on the left bagpiper's shoulder (for a
right-handed bagpiper, of course), and its position can range from being
almost vertical to being horizontal (parallel to the floor, pointing
backwards), depending on the shape of the bag and the player's
preferences. This drone is tuned as the bass drone for a Great Highland
Bagpipes, two octaves below the base note of the chanter.

Alcores Choir
of San Miguel de Salinas The Alcores Choir of San Miguel de Salinas joined other
Choirs and our Musical Union of San Miguel de Salinas in
the first Festival of San Milírico on 23rd
and 24th April 2005. Great performances!
La Coral Alcores was formed at the beginning of 2004 by a
group of local people with a love of the Operetta and of
the Habanera. The group met occasionally to sing together and decided to
perform small choral recitals as a part of theatrical
shows in the pueblo for the benefit of the townsfolk.
They continued because of their fondness for the
music and the delight of their audiences.
Their dedication and determination to form a proper
Choir lead them to seek the support of the Ayuntamiento
of San Miguel de Salinas, following representations D.
Aurelio Martínez López who was subsequently appointed to
assume responsibility and lead the group forward as "La
Coral Alcores", the name deriving from the range of
hills on which our town stands.
The first public performance of The Alcores Choir was on
15 May 2004 offering an impressive repertoire of
habaneras. The great sensibility of their renditions of
this style of singing delighted local people who had
memories of past times when these songs were sung in the
pueblo.
In their second performance on September 26 of the same
year they were joined by the Choir Torrevejense
Francisco Vallejos for a performance entitled 'A Concert
of Habaneras and South American Music'. It was a
delight for D. Aurelio Martínez López to direct the two
choirs in another spectacular presentation.
On 19th December the choir's third appearance took place in
our Church Parish, where they performed a concert of 'Villancicos'.
Currently there are 35 members of the choir and
everyone who is involved in La Coral Alcores is
enthusiastic to improve their skills and perform to
wider audiences. The idea of having a local choir could
not have come to fruition without the support of the
town itself, for many of those involved also have to
contend with the commitment of families and small
businesses.
And so to their latest triumph - the first Festival of
San Milírico; supported by our great Musical Union, a
packed Casa Cultura enjoyed a varied repertoire,
conducted by the Maestro D. Aurelio Martínez López,
concluding with the great piece 'Estampas del 98' by
Francisco Grau. There is much more to come from La
Coral Alcores de San Miguel de Salinas.
The
Habanera is a
style of music derived from the Cuban
Fishermen, and taken up in many towns of
the Costas; as they walked up the beaches on
their way home they would sing love
shanties to their waiting wives. |
