The first part will include interpretations of El Abanico, by Alfredo Javaloyes López; Florentiner Mars, by Julius Fučík; Under the Double Eagle, by Josef Franz Wagner; King Cotton, by John Philip Sousa; Colonel Bogey March, popularized by the soundtrack of Kenneth J.

After the break, the Municipal Band will perform Semper Fidelis, by John Philip Sousa; Arnhem, by Albert E. Kelly; Winning Barlovento, by Ramón Sáenz from Adana; the medley On the Move to the Movies, with well-known military-themed soundtracks, arranged by Larry Clark; 1941, by John Williams; and will conclude with La Flagerita, by Francisco Alonso López.
During the press conference the councilor highlighted the importance of this type of initiatives within the municipality’s cultural programming. “In Fuengirola we work to offer a wide, varied and quality cultural program throughout the year, which is especially intensified during the summer months, when our city receives more visitors. Our goal is that anyone, regardless of their age or tastes, always finds a cultural or leisure activity adapted to their preferences.”
Romero has also highlighted the artistic level of the Municipal Music Band and has encouraged neighbors and tourists to attend the concert.
“I invite both the neighbors and those who visit us these days to enjoy this concert, which constitutes a magnificent opportunity to get closer to a very attractive repertoire performed by a group of extraordinary quality. The Fuengirola Municipal Music Band has excellent professionals who offer performances of a very high level, turning each concert into a first-rate cultural experience.”
