SonsDeNit bids farewell to Marcel Cranc, Maria el Mar Bonet, and Joan Miquel Oliver in Mallorca and Menorca.
The festival reaches its closing date this week
PalmThe SonsDeNit festival reaches its final week with four concerts and invites the public to one last opportunity to experience three offerings that have grown with the festival. Two are Fonart creations promoted within SonsDeNit: Marcel Cranc Ensemble with the UIB Women's Choir and the duo Joan Miquel Oliver and Miquel Serra. The fourth is Maria del Mar Bonet withAt the Olympia, a contemporary reinterpretation of the 1975 live performance. The performances are spread across heritage sites and town squares in Llucmajor, Ciutadella, Son Carrió and Cala Sant Vicenç.
With Marcel Cranc, the language ofISgrows and takes on a choral form: voice and piano intertwine with electronics, wind instruments, and double bass, while the UIB Women's Heart contributes emotional volume and shared respite. The concert will take place on Saturday, August 23, at 9 p.m., in the Cloister of Sant Bonaventura in Llucmajor, where the music advances in layers—textures that whisper, phrases that open, and dynamics that rise and fall—until the cloister becomes a resonating room.
Maria del Mar Bonet returns toAt the Olympiafrom the present: it is not a museum recreation but a living reading that redraws arrangements, tempos, and nuances to put the memory of a legendary live performance in dialogue with the maturity of today. This encounter with the singer's essential repertoire will take place on Tuesday, August 26, at 9 p.m., at the Born Theater in Ciutadella, with a staging that alternates intensities and eras, making each performance a unique chapter in her career.
The shared project of Joan Miquel Oliver and Miquel Serra is articulated as an open conversation rather than two consecutive concerts: melodies that join hands, rhythms that play, lyrics that breathe freely, and that point of unpredictability that only occurs when there is trust and skill. The format will be presented on Saturday, August 30th, at 9 pm, in the plaza of Son Carrió Church, in a friendly, open-air setting, and will be completed on Sunday, August 31st, at 8 pm, in the church of Cala Sant Vicenç. Two evenings that showcase the project in motion: intimate, flexible, and with room for surprise.
