This work will be followed by the dance of planets and stars of La Lluna by ‎Ian Shaw, a work based on the poem by Jacint Verdaguer and winner of the second edition ‎of the El Cor Canta International Composition Competition for Choir and Orchestra. The ‎concert will be rounded off with a call for peace with Missa per la Pau (Mass for ‎Peace), by Salvador Brotons.‎  less

Le monde entier tressaille d'espérance En cette nuit qui lui donne un Sauveur. Peuple à genoux, attends ta délivrance. Noël, Noël, voici le Rédempteur, Noël, Noël, voici le Rédempteur ! --- Lyrics (English) Midnight, Christians, it is the solemn hour, When God as man descended unto us To erase the stain of original sin And to end the wrath of His Father. The entire world thrills with hope On this night that gives it a Savior. People kneel down, wait for your deliverance. Christmas, Christmas, here is the Redeemer, Christmas, Christmas, here is the Redeemer!  less

GIVE and TAKE A little Give and Take upholds a friendship. You have beds to sell, I have beddings to buy. Neighbors are family, Good riddles make good friends. The knife may be sharp, it never scrapes its handle. Those who always share never die of hunger. Long lives Diplomacy! Long lives Fraternity! - - - III. DAR y RECIBIR Un poco de Dar y Recibir sostiene una amistad, Tu tienes camas para vender, Yo necesito comprar. Los vecinos son familia, Buenos acertijos hacen buenos amigos. El cuchillo puede ser afilado, pero nunca raspará su mango. Quienes siempre comparten no morirán de hambre. Larga vida a la Diplomacia! Larga vida a la Fraternidad!  less
