This illumination will happen as a part of the standard Christmas Concert that shall be held contained in the basilica beginning at 7:30 p.m. The live performance shall be carried out by the Orquestra Simfònica del Vallès and can embody the participation of the Bruckner Barcelona Choir.
Under the path of Xavier Puig, a repertoire of Christmas carols from around the globe shall be provided. In addition, the Christmas carol for choir and orchestra “A les mans d’aquest toddler” by the composer Xavier Pagès-Corella and with lyrics by Joan Duran i Ferrer shall be premiered. At the tip of the live performance, the Sagrada Família will illuminate for the primary time the towers of the evangelists Lucas and Marcos, thus commemorating the completion of its development.
The first illumination is predicted to happen at 8:40 p.m. and, because the ox representing the evangelist Lucas is oriented in the direction of Gaudí avenue, the very best place to see the illuminated towers shall be on the intersection of this avenue and Provença avenue . At the identical time, the star of the Tower of Mary will even gentle up. In addition, it’s anticipated that the terminals of the towers of the evangelists Lucas and Marcos will gentle up each evening from December 17 to January 8, from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.
