Joan Manuel Serrat - Premio de honor de la Academia de la Música

Joan Manuel Serrat is now the recipient of the Honorary Award from the Spanish Academy of Music ✨ The third edition of the Spanish Academy of Music Awards, held on May 26th in Madrid, produced one of those unforgettable moments. For the first time, and by direct appointment of the institution, the Honorary Award was given to Joan Manuel Serrat. The Ifema Municipal Palace rose to its feet to welcome the singer-songwriter, who received the award from Sole Giménez in a scene filled with affection, respect, and mutual admiration. In his acceptance speech, Serrat once again moved the audience with his simplicity and sincerity. He recalled his early days in the “sacred atmosphere of his home kitchen,” singing alongside his mother, Ángeles Teresa, as daily life unfolded. He also offered a reflection, as insightful as it was necessary, on the times we live in, along with a message of profound gratitude to the audience that has accompanied him for almost six decades: “Thanks to you, I have been able to live a wonderful life that I never could have imagined when I was 20 years old… and to be able to decide when to leave the stage to enjoy that precious thing that is being alive.” This video captures that unique moment and the moving version of ‘Romance de Curro El Palmo’ performed by Andrés Suárez, María Terremoto, Iván Melon Lewis, and Antonio Serrano as a tribute to the maestro. A night to remember in music. 🎥 Press play and join us in this tribute to Joan Manuel Serrat. ------ Joan Manuel Serrat has received the Honorary Award from the Spanish Academy of Music ✨ The third edition of the Spanish Academy of Music Awards, held this May 26 in Madrid, will leave some moments that last.
