Dúo Laurempo
February 23, 2014Last year, Castillo de San Felipe had midday concerts on a Sunday. Currently, Castillo de San Felipe is closed for renovations, Teatro Timanfaya is now holding matinee concerts on a Sunday.
Today at midday, Dúo Laurempo (Enrique Alverez, oboe; Laura Gordo, piano).
I was quite surprised to find the place packed, on a lovely sunny day, far more than Castillo de San Felipe, though I much prefer Castillo de San Felipe.
I have to admit, the recital was a grave disappointment, either discordant to the point of wishing to cover ones ears or boring to the point of falling asleep. A very poor choice of material.
The one exception, Oblivion by Astor Piazzolla.
A pity the entire recital was not Astor Piazzolla, but if so, night not day.
Teatro Sala Timanfaya, just off Plaza Charco en Puerto de la Cruz, used to be a cinema, now a theatre.
Rastro en el Mercado
February 22, 2014A Saturday street market at El Mercado, a little above Hotel Luabay (Hotel Florida).
El Mercado, mainly clothes, a little book shop, cafe, on the ground floor. First floor fruit and vegetables, fish, meat. Top floor the roof.
Next to Harry´s Gourmeteria, the little cafe had closed, it has now opened as a little food shop. The fish shop serving fish grilled on a hot plate, oysters and Serrano Delicatessen also now serving food.
The street market is manly junk, like all street markets.
Today I could barely move, I have never seen so many people, the street outside also busy with people. I thought maybe a dull, cool day, or that I was earlier, but Harry said no, it is now always like this on a Saturday.
There is now a weekly craft market, above the bus old bus station, Monday to Friday. Mainly Blacks selling counterfeit goods.
