The municipality of Las Torres de Cotillas was able to enjoy on the night of Saturday, January 27, the beloved and emotional homage to the popular Torreño poet Salvador Sandoval for his 90th birthday, which took place in the House of Culture 'Pedro Serna' of the municipality .
Its stalls witnessed a great influx of friends and neighbors of the writer, who did not want to miss this great party organized by the literary association 'Las Torres' and also enjoyed a historic milestone: the first official interpretation of the town's anthem, that Sandoval himself has put lyrics.
The hymn Torreño - with music by José Alberto Morales - was interpreted in collaboration by the Murcian choir 'Orpheus Music' and the band from the 'Amigos de la Música' association of the Torreño municipality.
A composition that thrilled those present by his heartfelt lyrics, which begins with a stanza as significant as exciting: "Cradle of my elders, my land, huertano corner where I was born!".
Much love
In addition, the evening -presented by the actress of the local amateur theater group 'Tejuba' Lorena Lara- featured several interventions on the stage: the former Torreño mayor Domingo Coronado;
the actors of the 'Tejuba' Sole López and José Licerán;
the panocnist Fernando González Marquina, 'Nando er Tristán';
the son of the poet, Salvador Sandoval;
the Councilor for Culture, Pedro Cabrera;
and the writer himself.
The ceremony was closed by the mayor Isabel María Zapata, who had some words of love for Sandoval.
"Salvador represents the great cultural values ​​of Las Torres de Cotillas and it is a source of pride that the name of our town is associated with his work", highlights the councilor.
