The international contest of #music and #singing #MusicaDelMar took place on the #CostaBrava from 24 to 27 June 2018, which is held annually in Tossa de Mar. It is impossible not to fall in love with this picturesque town. Its beauty inspires many artists, poets and musicians. After all, Marc Chagall called Tossa de Mar "Blue Paradise" for a reason. The concert took place in #VilaVella, the medieval castle-fortress of the XII century, which offers a breathtaking view over the #Mediterranean Sea. Walking along the paved road, our participants felt a rush of creative inspiration, all the charm of these places opened up to them: rocky coasts, ancient towers, beautiful nature and soothing sea breeze ... At the concert there was a truly magical atmosphere: the melodious #voices of the participants, #guitar, #violin, #piano and Uzbek #dutar sounded in unison with the sea surf. The jury and viewers listened to every musical and vocal performance with fascination. On stage there were both participants and invited guests of the concert. The event was covered by local television. The jury was headed by Valérie Beney, the artist of the Vienna Opera, who also sang at the concert and held a master class on the development of vocal breathing for the contestants. Immediately after the concert of the contest came a touching moment of musical celebration - award ceremony!

"Melodic invention is one of the surest signs of a divine gift." G.Mahler
Uyghur Dutar
Num país onde a educação desapareceu, a música representava uma identidade cultural. Uma interpretação positiva do sentimento de pertencer a uma colectividade. (...) Até ao advento dos talibã, a música no Afeganistão tinha recheado a própria atmosfera. Estava presente em todas as festas, nos casamentos, nos aniversários, nos rituais da circuncisão, até nas refeições e nos cortes de cabelo e barba. O dutar e o tambur, mas principalmente o jar, um instrumento de percussão barato fabricado pelos ciganos, acompanhavam também - eram mesmo um elemento imprescindível - os jogos populares, o futebol, o boxe, a luta livre, o chub-bazi, espécie de dança simulando uma luta com varapaus, e o rei dos desportos populares no Norte do Afeganistão, o bozkahi.
