The Banda de Música de Pontevedra within the ‘Ciclo de Butaca 2017 – Ao Son da Mocidade’, will offer a Saturday concert in the Main Theater of Pontevedra, Spain, with works for various soloists. Among these works, the Maestro Rafa Agulló has included concerto soloist and bass trombone band: Omaira. Along with the BMP will be the young Óscar Vázquez who interpret it as soloist. Óscar is a promising young trombone under which only 11 he already played in this WAY.
It will certainly be a great version of Omaira with Óscar Vazquez, Rafa Agulló and BMP.

‘OMAIRA’

On November 13th 1985 the town of Armero in Colombia was literally swept away. It was bombarded by an avalanche of mud and stones set off by the melting of glaciers caused by the soon-to-erupt Volcano Nevado del Ruiz. This composition is dedicated to then 13 year old, Omaira Sanchez, one of the more than 23,000 victims of this disaster.
