It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas… Hundreds of international residents gathered In Torrevieja recently for the twentieth ‘Carols in the Square’ Christmas concert. The crowds, mainly British and Scandinavian, gathered around the stage of the Plaza de la Constitución to enjoy the festive fun. Many entered into the festive spirit with Santa hats and Christmas jumpers as they sang festive favourites such as Jingle Bells, We Wish you a Merry Christmas and Deck the Halls.
The music was provided by the Royal British Legion Concert Band, directed by David Last, and accompanied by the Crescendo choir and Torrevieja singer Shani Ormiston. The event was attended by the mayor, Eduardo Dolón, the vice mayor, Rosario Martínez, and the councillor for International Residents, Gitte Lund. The typically Christmas songs were performed in both English and Spanish, such as Fum, Fum, Fum and
Feliz Navidad. One of the concert highlights was Shani Ormiston’s new Christmas song “Más que suerte”. Carol singers were provided with song sheets courtesy of the Costa Blanca People which were sponsored by Moneycorp, your local foreign exchange experts.
