Grupo de la Jota "La Calandria"

At 19:00 in the school yard the jota group "La Calandria" gave their performances to a large audience of the people of Torre del Compte.


The costumes were splendid but could not have been all that comfortable as it was quite a hot evening even though the group had based themselves in the more shaded part of the school yard.

The dancers were very energetic as they showed their prowess with castanets, tambourines as well as sticks and some very fancy footwork.

The vocalists performed a couple of solos each as well as some numbers as a group...


...when the dancers performed their pieces.


Another well received part of the fiesta celebrations.
