Sant Josep square in Gandia was transformed into a large open-air stage for the third edition of 'Som Música Gandia', an educational project that brought together 14 educational centers from the city.

Hundreds of children, accompanied by their teachers, participated in a collective performance marked by rhythm and emotion. The proposal was based on active musical practice, with pieces inspired by modern African rhythms and performed with instruments and everyday objects.
This event, open to all citizens, featured the students as the main protagonists. The activity allowed showcasing the work carried out in classrooms over recent weeks and highlighting music as an educational, creative, and social tool.
'Som Música Gandia' celebrated its third edition this year with the aim of integrating music into the educational process in a practical and participatory way. The project combined teacher training with direct classroom work and culminated in this final concert, where the centers shared a common experience outside the school environment.

"This project strengthens the role of education as a driver of social cohesion and is committed to innovative, inclusive, and participatory methodologies."
