Corsican songs and Catalan rumba highly acclaimed by the public
In La Valette, summer is historically synonymous with a good atmosphere, open-air cafes, and conviviality.
This summer season is therefore true to this reputation with a program that is both family-friendly and festive, giving pride of place to pleasant times and evenings where sharing, energy, and culture meet and leave good memories. On terraces, in squares, or in gardens and parks, music is in the spotlight, from the Fête de la musique and its local talents to the Sainte-Anne evenings, famous far and wide, not forgetting the Jazz à Baudouvin evenings and the famous Friday night guinguettes!
MUSICAL ATMOSPHERE
Thus, on July 25 for Sainte-Anne, on place Général-de-Gaulle, a DJ raised the temperature before the concert of “BANDE À PART”. This high-energy group revisited French song classics, international pop-rock hits, and the most beautiful Corsican songs. And the next day, this time on place Jean-Jaurès, led by the legendary Chico Bouchikhi, co-founder of the Gipsy Kings, the group “CHICO AND THE GYPSIES” set the stage on fire with its Catalan rumba, flamenco sound, and pop-rock touches. A vibrant and sunny evening that won the audience's approval.
