Ayuntamiento de Santanyí

Welcome to the Music school’s website

As councillor of Education and Culture of the Santanyí Town Hall, I would like to use this website to extend a warm welcome to everyone interested in knowing more about our music school. As members of the Town Council, these new ways of communicating bring us closer to our fellow “santinyers” who maybe miss the warmth of a face-to-face exchange but on the other hand benefit from a faster service and find it easier to get to know us and share our thoughts and concerns about Santanyí, our town.

If you are interested in music, it means that you are a sensitive person. The music school’s aim is to educate the young people of Santanyí who want to go on a musical journey rather than “hang out” in places that I would not recommend. And it seems that things have indeed worked. For four years, the Santanyí music school has been a pioneer in promoting and teaching the universal language of music in the many classes that are taught: wind, string, piano, harmony, instruments… any of these options will guide your steps in a flagless journey without limits and borders. Beneath the five lines of a stave full of initiation, obscure symbols lies a world of fantasies and the echo of the most direct art, an art that is heard through the ears and fills and touches the heart.

I can not begin to express the great satisfaction I feel for the music school and for having the opportunity to lead the Department. I owe the deepest gratitude to my collaborator and friend Damià Rigo, who was responsible for the project.

I would like to congratulate all those who have attended the music school. Some of them have made music their profession. For others it might be a distant memory, yet an experience that they will always remember. I am sure that we can all look forward to sharing the feelings evoked by the landscape of our town, the green crystal-clear waters of our coves, the organ of the Church of sant Andreu, es Pontàs and the tower of en Beu… our love for culture, the pride of our beloved town.
