| | Calella de Palafrugell is known for its traditional Havaneres, sea shanties brought back from Cuba by sailors in the 19th Century, which tell of lost loves and faraway ancestors. These lovely sing-songs are usually accompanied by guitar and accordion, and sometimes bass.
Havaneres concerts are staged throughout the summer, top event being the amazing Cantada d'Havaneres (Singing of Havaneres) Festival held every end of June in Calella de Palafrugell. If you don't manage to hear a concert of Habaneras, there are a couple of cafes with a distinctly habanera flavor. Havaneres are usually listened to while sipping ron cremat, or rum flambeed with coffee beans in terra cotta dishes. | |
