Castanets Concert — Cuarteto Repiques

Step into the vibrant, rhythmic world of Spanish musical tradition with a captivating performance by Cuarteto Repiques, one of Spain’s most acclaimed contemporary ensembles dedicated exclusively to the art of castanets. This is more than a concert — it’s an immersive experience: crisp percussive patterns, spontaneous improvisation, flawless ensemble interplay, and deep roots in flamenco, Andalusian folklore, and classical Spanish culture.

Named after the Spanish word repique — meaning ‘a sharp rhythmic accent’ or ‘percussive flourish’ — Cuarteto Repiques has been enchanting audiences across Spain and internationally for over a decade. Their performances blend virtuosic castanet technique with theatrical presence, expressive movement, and intergenerational appeal — making this 50-minute show especially engaging for families and music lovers aged 10 and up.

The event is part of the city’s Intergenerational Workshops in Municipal Public Libraries, designed to revive and share oral and performing traditions through live, participatory encounters. Admission is free but requires advance online reservation — places are limited. Please arrive 10–15 minutes before the start time, as late entry is not permitted once the performance begins.
