Kwarta Tajba Presents Festival of Innovative Music
Kwarta Tajba represents a new artistic festival divided in two events and organised by the Southern Region Council of Malta. The first edition of Kwarta Tajba will be held across two different sites in Ħaż-Żebbuġ in collaboration with the Ħaż-Żebbuġ Local Council.
The "Site 1" of the festival will take place on the evenings of Friday 27th and Saturday 28th of August 2021 at Misrah L-Isptar in Ħaż-Żebbuġ. To note that the "Site 2" of the festival will take place on the same dates, always in Haz-Zebbug, at the Kappella tal-Madonna tal-Abbandunati, , with different artists involved.
The evenings will feature the three following performances:
- Kburija Maltija by Josue Formosa (Director); Vince Fabri (Lyrics and Music); Being Creative All Together in collaboration with Chiara Hyzler (Script); Natalino Formosa (Set); Being Creative All Together (Producer). This performance is about an historic act by the Maltese people after the World War II. It happened on the 25th of March 1945, when a football match was organised between Malta and Yugoslavia. On that day, the British anthem played when the Maltese people stood up and screamed and sang The Maltese Anthem in unison.
- Mel’Isma’ by Nicole Spiteri (Flute); Isabella Borg (French Horn); Christine Vella (Saxophone); Jessica Ellul (Clarinet); Sabrina Sacco (Narrator & Actor); Dr Anton John Mifsud (Script); Daniel Vella (Producer & Composer). MEL’ISMA’ is a multi-disciplinary project, in which the audience will experience the outlook from a female adolescent point of view. Female artists will perform during this musical-theatrical project, complementing one another and engaging the audience.
- Tinsiex li Neżisti by William Debattista (clarinet); Joseph Vella (alto saxophone); Christopher Spiteri (tuba); Julia Miller (piano); Jean Pierre Cassar (percussion); Francesca Aquilina (voice), amongst others. This project “Song Cycle” combines original music, poetry, dramatic prose, movement, painting and the participation of the audience.
