This crisis stems from the split between the El Micalet Choral Society—one of Valencia's main cultural venues—and the Teatre Micalet Company—which shares the same name because, since its inception 31 years ago, it has performed its own shows and those of other touring companies in the society's building. The two societies parted ways after negotiations to renew the theater's lease failed, explaining the situation with statements that included accusations of "expulsion," "eviction," and "lock changes" without warning. In practice, the decision, which must be ratified at an extraordinary meeting of the choir on February 6, could mean the disappearance of the city's only theater that chose to offer performances exclusively in Valencian.</p>]]></description>

A press conference was held in which he guaranteed that the concert will be "one of the most important musical events of the summer." Musician Borja Penalba also believes this, emphasizing that the recital will feature "the most varied styles of the current Valencian musical scene" with artists such as Pep Gimeno Botifarra, Miquel Gil, Pau Pino, and Penalba himself.</p>]]></description>
