This year he has scheduled 10 thanks to which you can enjoy two different concerts for just one, which will end up being specified in a total of 14 concerts.
Catalan musical traditions and the fact of giving prominence to our country's composers and performers, will be the main axes of the programming.

The objectives of this edition
The artistic direction of Jordi Armengol proposed in this new edition to consolidate the Cervera Easter Festival within the extensive range of festivals that we find throughout Catalonia, continuing to affirm the personality so distinctive and characteristic that the fact of being dedicated to Catalan classical music and everything that surrounds it gives it.

Equally, wants to deepen research and knowledge of our musical heritage, both the past and the present, so that we can properly claim our composers and performers.
Another objective is to encourage public attendance and the discovery of music made in Catalonia by all levels of society with a very ambitious price and discount policy so that everyone has access to it.
An extensive and varied program
The Festival will start on 21 of March with the traditional school concert, which will be in charge of LleidArt Ensemble with "The adventures of the Bol and the Ling". This performance aims to bring music closer to the little ones and for them to become the new festival audience of the future.

To close the day on Friday, the evening concert will be performed by the National Youth Choir of Catalonia directed by Mireia Barrera with "The wealth of Catalan choral music".
Saturday, 30 March, it will be the last day of the Festival and it will also start with local concerts. The Auditorium will host "Resonances of silence" with Sílvia Vidal (piano) and Ramon Humet (bol tibetan, quartz bowls and gong).
