Cádiz CF has released the latest instalment in its ongoing match-poster campaign ‘Cádiz de arte’ (‘Cádiz Artistry’), in which the club’s goal is to use its official matchday publicity to highlight and pay tribute to the region’s rich cultural tradition.
On the poster for Cádiz’s LaLiga Santander matchday-10 clash with Real Sociedad on Sunday, it is Manuel de Falla who takes centre stage. Cádiz-born De Falla, who represented the musical nationalism style, is considered one of the most important composers of the 20th century. Among his many acclaimed works are ‘The Three-Cornered Hat’, ‘Betic Fantasy’, ‘Spell-bound Love’, ‘Life is Short’, ‘Atlantis’ and ‘Nights in the Gardens of Spain’.
Cádiz CF is hugely proud of its region’s artistic heritage and once more seeks to make this pride known, as part of an initiative which so far this season has also seen match posters dedicated to: singer, actor and dancer Lola Flores, a native of Jerez de la Frontera (matchday one); Chipiona-born singer Rocío Jurado (matchday three); Algeciras’ flamenco musician Paco de Lucía (matchday five); and poet Rafael Alberti, who hailed from El Puerto de Santa María.
