Deserved success of the Sonafilm Festival in the Ondara bullring

August 25 from 2021 - 14: 10

The Film Music Festival of the Marina Alta Sonafilm was once again a success in the third edition held on Saturday August 21 in Ondara. It took place in the town's bullring and its poster, with the Universal Symphony Orchestra, managed to sell out all the available seats within the permitted capacity.

The public was able to enjoy the epic film music festival with a first part of the concert that paid tribute to "The Lord of the Rings". Peter Jackson's trilogy turned 20 years since its premiere and the festival surprised the audience with the projection of images of the films while the Universal Symphony Orchestra performed the pieces of the film. In addition, the CODA children's choir also participated with a brilliant performance.

The second part of the festival was aimed at people who were not familiar with the trilogy but with the soundtracks of older films, such as "Lawrence of Arabia", "Gone with the wind", "The Magnificent 7" or "Rocky". In the same way, images of these productions were projected to the rhythm of the songs performed by the Universal Symphony Orchestra, doubly delighting the audience.

For its part, the Sonafilm organization wanted to surprise the public with the unexpected participation of the Cor de la Rectoria, a novelty that had not been announced.

Finally, the Universal Symphony Orchestra performed the piece "Ecstasy of Gold" from the movie "The Good, the Ugly and the Bad." Thus it was announced that next year's edition of Sonafilm will be dedicated to the Italian composer Ennio Morricone.
