Info

The Alhambra has always had a special influence on its visitors. Everyone from ordinary folk to the biggest artists. This Nasrid monument has therefore been glossed, sung or painted by different creators over the centuries, without losing any of its characteristic fascination and charm. It has always been closely linked to music. Its walls have heard the great prodigies of classical music, opera and flamenco, among other genres. Only on very few, exceptional occasions has the monument opened its doors to other, more contemporary genres.

The 1001 Músicas – CaixaBank series is centred upon continuity, growth and development. It aims to meet the demands of all artists and audiences, eager to share music and applause against a unique backdrop.

The power of the Alhambra, the influence of Granada on Spain’s musical history, the image of a city of both tradition and avant-garde, a city that strives for everything in this turbulent 21st century environment, will soon give the gift of 1001 Músicas – CaixaBank to millions of eyes and ears around the world.
