  • Year of establishment: 1921
    History:
    Created in 1921, this entity was born from the impulse of different musicians from the city to create, an entity similar to the one that arose in Barcelona, with the Orfeó català. The first conductor was Antoni Botey and he quickly began his involvement with musical life in Badalona and Catalonia. The outbreak of the Civil War interrupted the activities of the formation and it was not until 1948 that they were refounded again. At present the organization continues with its musical activity and develops a powerful program of music, dance and scenic arts.
