Caramellas in Sant Feliu Sasserra

After the Solemn Mass sung by the Sant Feliu Sasserra Choir, there will be a Caramelles singing procession through several streets of the town.

Caramelles are a musical and cultural tradition celebrated during Holy Week in Catalonia. This festival involves groups of singers who take to the streets performing folk songs with instruments such as the tambourine, the gralla (a type of Catalan guitar), the flute, and the drum. They also typically carry a basket in which they collect Easter eggs given to them by people in exchange for their performances. This interaction between the singers and the community creates a festive atmosphere and fosters social cohesion.

This tradition has its roots in medieval religious music and is considered a form of prayer and thanksgiving for spring and life. Caramelles are not only an artistic expression but also a way to celebrate the arrival of spring and the renewal of nature, a moment eagerly awaited by all the inhabitants of the area.

If you love music and traditions, you can't miss this unique opportunity. Come and listen to the traditional sweets (caramelles) in the streets of Sant Feliu!
