In celebration of Santa Cecilia, the patron saint of music, the Municipal School of Music and Dance in San Sebastián is set to bring music into the streets once again. This year, the event is part of Musikalean 2026, an initiative organised by the Association of Music and Dance Schools of Euskadi (EHME), now in its nineteenth edition.
From 16 to 22 November, over 1,500 students from more than 50 music schools across the Basque Country will transform streets and squares into open-air stages, highlighting the importance of music education as a key element of socio-cultural dynamism.
In San Sebastián, the celebration will take place on Tuesday, 17 November, at 18:00, at the main entrance of the Atotxa headquarters in Campo de Atotxa square. Students from the Txistu class will perform a concert aimed at sharing the richness of popular music.
This event not only seeks to showcase the work done in classrooms but also provides students of all ages and backgrounds with the opportunity to experience live performance in a close and accessible environment. Staying true to its educational project and philosophy, the Municipal School promotes culture as a space for intergenerational meeting, diversity, and teamwork, strengthening the link between artistic training and urban life.
