 For the last 10 years, an annual series of concerts has been
celebrated in honor of the great musician, pedagogue and composer Aureo Herrero,
in his native village, El Barraco (Avila).
In these concerts, celebrated during August and September, guitar players who
were students of Aureo met with other young performers from different Spanish
provinces and abroad in order to share during some dearly evenings the feeling
of respect for the music and in particular for the guitar of Aureo Herrero’s legacy.
As time goes on the public from El Barraco and from other villages of Avila and
Madrid, comes to these concerts with more enthusiasm. Now it has become a cultural
event of first class expected with impatience by the music lovers with a great
social reaching in the whole province of Avila.
 Although the guitar is the main instrument in these
concerts, as it was the instrument Aureo Herrero dedicates most of his
teaching efforts to, it is our desire to hold, together with the
guitar, other instruments to let the audience know the very interesting
possibilities the guitar has inside chamber music. With all this, both
the public and the artist benefit and a musical and concert activity is
promoted, something not very common but necessary for the vocational
training of our young students in conservatories and municipal music
schools.
 Regarding this philosophy of searching the participation of
different instruments together with the guitar and joining an experienced performer
with the originality of young musicians who are starting their careers, the public
from El Barraco has had the chance to listen together with the solo guitar (Pedro
Martín, Javier Maíz, Carlos Díaz, Antonio Domínguez
Buitrago, Pedro Mateo González, Jesús Gutiérrez, Pilar Ríus,
Rebeca Cerro, Roberto Morón, Begoña González, Óscar
López, Manuel Osorio, Ramiro Morales, Víctor Jiménez, etc.);
guitar duos; guitar trios (Trios Ministriles); string quartet (Sarasate Quartet);
violin (Celia Sanabria, Paloma Ania); violoncello (José Enrique Bouche,
Rocío García de la Cruz), piano (Luis Vallines, Laura García
de la Cruz, Laura Ania, Julia Beatriz Rodríguez, José Luis Bernaldo
de Quirós, José Alberto González, Jorge González,
Matteo Dascannio, etc.); tenors (Ricardo Perez Serrano); flute (Sonia Alves);
clarinet (Carmen Fernández, Jesús Maroto); groups as Big Band Galapajazz
de la Escuela de Música de Galapagar (Madrid), El Grupo Avila-Pulso y Púa,
Rondalla of El Barraco and Municipal Music Band of El Barraco.
The city council of El
Barraco (Avila) has organized and subsidized these musical activities from
its first edition in 1995, year of Aureo Herrero’s death. After, the Social and
Cultural Work of Caja de Ahorros de Avila incorporated actively to the project,
as well as the Culture and Tourism Council of Castilla y Leon Programa XI Ciclo de Conciertos
