Joan Manuel Serrat and Joaquín Sabina return to ally on stage with their new tour, which will land four nights in Madrid and one in Barcelona with almost everything sold

Like the two old friends they are, Joan Manuel Serrat (Barcelona, ​​1943) and Joaquín Sabina (Úbeda, Jaen, 1949) meet again on stage, a fact that has been taking place punctually for almost a decade. This time, the joint tour is limited to four nights in Madrid and a fifth in Barcelona . They will be the only concerts that the couple offers in Spain, after a longer tour of South America, where they have offered 17 recitals.

This new tour receives by title No two without three and is a spiritual continuator of the two previous shows of these two cousins ​​brothers (so they are performing live): Two birds with one stone and two birds counterattack . As is often the case with these types of events, he plans to doubt whether it will be the last time they collaborate on the tables, so the expectation is maximum: February concerts in Madrid are very exhausted since they were put up for sale . For the January shows, there are [for the moment] just a few loose locations scattered around the stands of the former Sports Palace in Madrid.

Songs of always with a new life

Serrat and Sabina share space, then, and also repertoire. The really exciting thing about the recitals they perform is that the songs become bastard pieces that come to life , both in musical arrangements and in the fact that they both sing other people's works, as if I do nothing but think of you as a composition socarrona de Joaquín or Princesa , a classic of Joan Manuel's discography. Barcelona and jienense joining their respective talents to create something new. The whole is more than the sum of the parts, this time. The production is elegant and elegant.

The duo thus momentarily set aside their particular work . Serrat, for example, was claiming his legendary Mediterranean album last year on an ad hoc tour throughout the national territory. Sabina, on the other hand, published a new studio album in 2017 ( I deny everything , thanks to Leiva and Benjamín Prado). During the presentation tour, he had some health problems, which led him to cancel until a concert at the Wizink Center itself on June 18, 2018 after «staying mute». Those problems seem already happily overcome.

What will the concerts of Serrat and Sabina be like?

In his appointments in Madrid, after a musical introduction ( There are no two without three ), the concert will truly start with an intercalated succession of compositions: Birds of passage , Bad Companies , A song for Magdalena , Chance is capricious ... So until a concatenation that will become the first major high point of the night: 19 days and 500 nights followed immediately by Your name tastes like weed . From there, the frequency of classics does not stop: Cantares , Lucia , Mediterráneo or Señora , by Serrat, and Princesa , and yet , With You and Y they gave us ten , by Sabina. By the time the end of the party arrives, the throats of the public will be dry to sing songs that are already inescapable part of the cultural (and social) memory of a country .
