The decision comes after the museum dedicated to the vocalist in Aielo de Malferit (Valencia), his hometown, closed a few months ago. This closure occurred due to the family's non-renewal of rights assignment contracts.
Days after the closure, the Valencia capital's council assured that it was already in contact with the singer's family so that the city could host the legendary artist's legacy. The Diputación de València argued that, even if the Nino Bravo Museum were eventually moved to the city of Valencia, the municipality of Aielo de Malferit and its region, La Vall d'Albaida, should retain some element or memory linked to the artist.
The mayor of Valencia, María José Catalá, confirmed that several meetings have been held with the family. The statement was made on Thursday, the day marking 53 years since Nino Bravo's death, after visiting the rehabilitation works of the Abastos Complex.
“"They are sending us proposals and we are starting to evaluate them."
According to Catalá, it is evident and the will of the Valencia City Council that an important part of the legacy of this significant musical figure from our land remains in the city. She emphasized that there is willingness from both the family and the council to achieve this.
The mayor promised that the project is exciting and predicted that it will greatly enhance and project Nino Bravo's legacy.
