Plaza said that the Torrevieja habanera is an important means of spreading Spanish culture and traditions abroad. He said that it is a great honour for the the Instituto Cervantes to work with this important, well known and especially prestigious contest which he has had the opportunity of attending in person, and that will allow us to work together in our centers around the world, on five continents with almost 80 locations.

The mayor responded by thanking the Cervantes Institute for their collaboration and involvement in spreading and disseminating the Habanera all over the world, the most important aspect of Torrevieja’s cultural and musical identity. He said that the agreement is the very best recognition of the event which this year celebrates its 60th anniversary in which it intends to spread the message of peace worldwide through song.

After signing the agreement there was a minute’s silence in memory of the victims of the 11 March terrorist attack on its tenth anniversary.

There then followed a spectacular performance from a group of soloists Torrevejenses representing all choirs in the locality. They were led by Aurelio Martinez.
