The first act will be the hanging
of a plaque on Mañueta Street in Pamplona in the
presence of Juan Habichuela and Manolo Sanlúcar.
Agustín Castellón Campos ‘Sabicas’
will thus be forever commemorated in his hometown. But
the sound of guitar couldn’t be missing in a tribute
to the maestro. The Sabicas Guitar Festival premieres
from August 28th to 30th, 2008 with performances by tocaores
such as Pepe
Habichuela and Josemi Carmona - together in ‘Habichuela
en rama’-, Niño Josele, Daniel Casares, Miguel
Ochando and Jesús de Rosario. Workshops and master
classes complete the program.
