Four boys Catalans, Manel, reached a record high in their native language and then every step you take becomes an event.
Luckily, not use bait extravagance and scandal of others.
Manel returned last March with his new job 10 miles per veure a bona armor (Discmedi / Warner).
15 years ago that a disk in Catalan could not be number 1 on the music charts in Spain and never a pop group that sings in Catalan had done it.
Manel broke the border last March.
Murcia will be on October 8 am in Room Regional Narciso Yepes Víctor Villegas Auditorium, in other musical cycle, at 21:30.

Those who do not live in Catalonia are unlikely to be aware of the status achieved by the quartet Manel Barcelona thanks to his debut here, "Els millors europeus Professors" (08), undoubtedly the most brilliant album sung in Catalan published in years.
His folk pop friendly image and diction of good guys, his songs imbued with all his manners and how to combine the Anglo-Saxon heritage with the Catalan tradition represented a milestone dazzling erecting zero to sixty in the figurehead of a generation artists who welcomed back their mother tongue without political vocation, but emotional.
Time has passed and although others have tried to collect their control without a tenth of its value, the throne remains his.
The self-produced "10 miles per veure a bona armor" ("ten miles to see a good armor," quotes Shakespeare via Kenneth Branagh in "Much Ado About Nothing") provides several new features while staying true to what is Manel and keeping those great texts in both contagious optimism "Els millors europeus Professors."
Over forty-five minutes and ten cuts, Guillem Gisbert, Roger Padilla, Martí and Arnau Maymó Vallvé (with the help of eleven winds, various guest musicians, choir and vocalists Arsinova Clara Gisela Molins and Follo) discover again all the talent they treasure.
Few buts you can put a disk capable of reaching heights of fantasy as the stunning "Anniversary", which refers to more orchestral Sufjan Stevens like a fairy tale it were, say goodbye to the excited audience with "Deixa- the, Toni, Deixa-la ", a piece - signed by Padilla, who opened fire with a habanera ways to say goodbye with all the rhythm of a brass band from New Orleans, or leave the road and sweeping pieces as beautiful as "Boomerang" or "Benvolgut".
Manel have again achieved.
The singing in their language not closing doors that should open them wide if all that mattered in this world were the good songs.
