The return of Holy Week to Cieza, now that the most critical period of the pandemic has passed, and the absolute premiere of the soundtrack created by Roque Baños for “El Prendimiento” of Holy Tuesday, has drawn the attention of the international media, especially from the Latin Americans, much more sensitive and identified with the Catholic traditions.

The preview of the premiere of the composition of Baños, has awakened the curiosity of some digital media in Mexico and Venezuela. The media in question are the Mexicans “Convergente”, “Tollocán, a 8 Columns” and “La Parada”, and “La Verdad” from Venezuela.

The four media highlight the return “in a big way” of Holy Week in Cieza after two years of forced stop, and value the prestige and renown of the composer from Jumilla, Roque Baños, author of the piece that will be played on live with the Municipal Band de Cieza, the genuine moment of the “El Prendimiento” next Tuesday, April 12.

What do the media reflect?

“Tollocán, 8 columns” reflects in its information that “the Holy Week “El Prendimiento” will have its own music not only from the Municipal Band, but also with the great collaboration of the prestigious musician Roque Baños, winner of 3 awards Goya. In other words, Cieza will have a first-class Easter as we are accustomed to, but now, precisely, the surprise is added in the form of a bonus track by the enormous musician Roque Baños”.

“La Verdad” from Venezuela, tells that the representation of “El Prendimiento” is going to take a decisive step forward this year by completely changing its Sound accompaniment. The recordings of great works of sacred music that were used until now and for decades will be dispensed with, and finally “El Prendimiento” will have its own soundtrack, an original composition that will be performed live by the Cieza Municipal Music Band and that will accompany the entire performance and its different episodes.

As to “La Parada digital” de México, analyzes the excellent quality of the composition of Baños and qualifies the experience as “a colossal work, full of nuances to adapt to the episodic narration, but with a resounding unity, which will add a new dimension to “El Auto del Prendimiento”, underpinning with enormous solidity its identity and its singularity”.

Lastly, the Mexican digital newspaper “Convergente”, collects the words of Cieza’s Councilor for Tourism, Antonio Moya, who describes the exciting and enthusiastic moment that Cieza’s Holy Week will experience in a few days, as it is accompanied by a “pattern by Roque Baños that will be, starting next Holy Tuesday and forever, part of “El ciezano Prendimiento”. A dream come true”.
