The Zeltik Festival in Dudelange (Luxembourg)

Well..there is people that think that in this small country (yes,...Luxembourg is a city, but Luxembourg is also a country!  ;))..nothing happens...

I live and work here and I can tell you....nothing is missing here (we had also Ramazzotti,..what else? ;))

One event that I could have not missed was the Zeltik Festival in Dudelange, on the 12 of March 2016....

This event takes place every year...but this was the first year I heard of it and went.

It is a kind of celebration of the Celtic music...with artists from all over Europe...

All started with the BEOGA...

Then they were followed by the DANCEPERADOS OF IRELAND, who sing the stories of the Irish travellers and the music they were bringing with them.

And at the end the star that everyone was waiting (except me! ;) ..as it was the first time I had heard about him -_-) was CARLOS NUNEZ...which made a kind of show.....

The evening was very nice...full of people, nice atmosphere...

People enjoyed a lot Carlos Nunez. Well, not me. He presented how the Celtic music is played all around the World...and this is could be also interesting.

What I did not really like at all is that he transformed the Celtic music in a show...when the Celtic music is something much more intimate. It is something that is song for the pleasure to stay together and to express its own feeling, and cannot be transformed in a kind-of Madonna concert.

The skill of the singer/player stays in the ability of let you feel emotionally involved, no matter if you are listening him/her in a pub in a small village or in a stadium with hundreds of people...

And when I say emotionally involved, I mean the ability to arrive to your heart and not to stop to your ears. And no matter how much loudly Nunez was singing/playing...his music just stopped there..

Now I feel a little a fish out of water, as so much people loved him..well the music is great as everyone can have his/her taste...and maybe not everyone spent three weeks and half in Ireland! ;)

Anyway, back to Ireland, this is a small piece of the Danceperados of Ireland!!

Enjoy!! :)
