Festival Música Popular de Barcelona
Prepare to hear an array of musical delights that will be performed around the city at the Festival MPB which plans to blast Barcelona with the sounds of flamenco, tango, fusion, poetry, swing, jazz, Afro beat, pop, rock and rap, amongst others. All in all there will be 29 concerts with 120 musicians performing at the festival, so there will be something to suit even the most picky of music fans.
Look out for a concert that will pay tribute to the jazz musician Francesc Burrull who is renowned for his constant contribution to the development of jazz in Catalunya. Expect the same astounding mix of piano and percussion from the tribute band.
However, if romance and jazz are not your thing, then perhaps a taste of rap from American underground hip hop artist Matt Maddox could be more up your street. He released his new album, Asylum Artistry this year, so expect a fresh bunch of rap tracks.
And if these artists don't take your fancy, don't panic. A full list of acts will be available as of the 28th of September on the website.
