Auditori de Teulada Moraira

Due to an overwhelming response,

Cava and wine reception: 19:00 h. Meet and Greet Joshua Stewart.
The ever-popular classic New Orleans jazz band, The Bourbon Street Stompers, from Essen in Germany will be visiting Spain again this autumn, and Concerts Costa Blanca has advised that there are already very few seats left for the performance at the Auditori de Teulada-Moraira on Friday 30 October even though there has not yet been any advertising other than to those on the CCB mailing list. So if you have not booked, now is the time to do so, and the box office details are given below.
In view of the tremendous demand for tickets, the organisers are considering a matinee performance on the same day, so if you do not manage to get a ticket for the evening performance, by ringing 96 574 9023, you can reserve a place for the matinee if it does in fact come to fruition.
The Stompers, now in their 22nd year, were first brought to the Costa Blanca by local resident, Norman Dunnington, in 2009. They were given a standing ovation by the capacity audience of almost 1000 at the Palau in Altea, and in the subsequent years they have played at Teulada, Torrevieja, Alicante and Valencia, all to rapturous reviews. This year, in addition to playing again at Teulada, they will make their debut at the magnificent Auditorium de Palma de Mallorca on Sunday 1 November.
Two years ago Concerts Costa Blanca had the brilliant idea of inviting a special guest vocalist to sing with the band. He was Joshua Stewart, a powerful tenor who had just graduated from the prestigious Curtis Institute in Philadelphia, and who had performed at the Auditori de Teulada-Moraira the year before. Joshua was born in New Orleans, and sang with jazz bands there before being recruited by the Curtis Institute and being trained as an opera singer. He returned by popular request to accompany the Stompers again last year, and both he and the band are looking forward to making it three in a row this year.
One of the hottest young New Orleans bands in Europe
