The musician and researcher Pau Carbonell recovers Cervera

The musician and researcher Pau Carbonell recovers Cervera's musical heritage with the publication of the album "La Crida"

The album "The Call", of the young Cerverian Pau Carbonell, includes arrangements of unpublished works by the composer Francesc Comorera, as well as two original compositions.

This project is the result of exhaustive research carried out at the Segarra County Archives and the Cervera Conservatory Municipal Archives, where Carbonell has discovered and recovered unpublished works by Francesc Comorera, a former rector of Cervera who composed during the time of the Commonwealth.
Among the works recovered, the "Cant de la Senyera" stands out, dedicated to La Segarra and the Catalan language; "El Plor de la Tortora" and "Hymn to the Glory of Cervera". These compositions have been arranged by Carbonell for quartet and brass quintet.

As Carbonell explains, "my vocation to serve the general interest has been the engine that has driven me to do this work, with the aim of recovering and contributing a valuable cultural legacy for our community". He also points out that "this same vocation is what gave the album its name, "The Call"".

In addition to the works of Comorera, the EP includes two original compositions by Carbonell: "The Belfry of Cervera", inspired by the dissonances of the city bells, and "Under Your Protection", a song to the Virgin Mary of Montserrat with a completely new harmony.

The EP is now available on all digital platforms.

Compositions of "The Call":

  1. Cant de la Senyera
  2. The Belfry of Cervera (original composition)
  3. The Cry of the Dove
  4. Under Your Protection (original composition)
  5. Hymn to the glory of Cervera

The students of 3rd and 4th of primary will participate in the project “Edunauta Passport”

The students of 3rd and 4th of primary will participate in the project “Edunauta Passport”

The children received a learning passport where the municipal educational activities will be registered, organized by the city's entities, in which they participate.

On Thursday 26 September, close to 200 3rd and 4th grade students from the three schools in Cervera (The Savines, Jaume Balmes and Mn. Josep Arques) they received the Edunauta Passport, a learning diary that will record everything that children learn while exploring and enjoying the educational activities offered by various entities in the cerverine galaxy.

The galaxy of edunauts is made up of several learning destinations, in this case, located in Cervera. A learning destination is the place where edunauts travel to participate in different types of activities, such as a library, a museum, a school, a civic center, others.

monthly, the Cervera Environmental Education Plan will draw up an agenda with the activities communicated through a virtual environment by the different participating entities. This agenda will be distributed to educational centers, and students who participate in any of the proposed activities will receive a stamp in their passport from the organization of the event.

Although only 3rd and 4th year students will have a passport, most activities are open to students from other courses, they are of quality, pedagogical and accessible to everyone. This way, edunauts will be able to enjoy the activities with colleagues and family members from other courses. However, it is requested that, in all cases, attendance must be accompanied by an adult.

The variety of activities that will be offered is wide and will allow for very diverse learning: from land and science, technology and digital world, to sport and well-being, arts, culture and design, numbers and letters, community and participation, leisure and games, others. At the end of the course, when the student has the passport stamped with all the activities carried out, a graduation party will be held where they will receive the edunauta learning diploma.

The "Edunauta Passport" project is an initiative promoted by the Education Alliance 360, with the support of the Cervera Educational Plan, which promotes equal educational opportunities beyond school for all children. The passport is a tool that strengthens community education in the territories where it is implemented and that focuses on making it accessible and connecting, recognize and make learning beyond school visible. This initiative aims to ensure that children in the territory can participate in accessible educational activities, varied and quality, regardless of their social origin and under fair conditions.
