Kurioses Intermezzo - an alle, die Granada kennen bzw. endlich kennen lernen sollten!

Das Interesse war bereits geweckt, als ich es morgens im Radio vernahm:

An diesem Tag sollte der Joe Strummer-Platz eingeweiht werden - zu Ehren des Sängers von "The Clash" (Should I stay or should I go?), im Jahre 2002 verstorben & zu Lebzeiten innig mit Granada verbunden.
 
Als mir eine Freundin dann mitteilte, dass das Ganze um 8 und um die Ecke von meiner Wohnung stattfinden sollte, war mir klar: Ich gehe hin & schaue mal. Punkt 8 machte ich mich auf dem Weg, in der sicheren Annahme, dass es bestimmt erst eine halbe Stunde später losgehen würde. Auf dem Weg zu dem mir unbekannten Ort am hinteren Ende der C/Molinos, dort wo es schon wieder bergab geht, sah ich bereits einige Leute, die zu so einem Event passten. Auch Patrick aus Margas Schule befand sich darunter, von sicherem journalistischen Gespür geleitet.
 
Der kleine, lauschige baumbestandene Platz war schon überfüllt, als wir ca. 7 Minuten später dort eintrafen. Es sprachen gerade die Ex-Frau von Joe Strummer oder seine Witwe - beide waren jedenfalls zugegen, genau wie seine zwei Töchter. Für diesen Anlass hatten sogar die restlos zerstrittenen Parteien im Rathaus das Kriegsbeil für ein paar Stunden begraben und die jeweiligen Vertreter präsentierten sich in schönster Eintracht. Inzwischen füllte sich auch die Straße neben dem Platz mit Zuschauern, sowie ein Weg darüber, von dem die Leute wie von einer Aussichtsterrasse herabblickten.
 
Das Wichtigste an diesem Abend war natürlich die Musik: Musiker einer bekannten Granadiner Band namens 091, Mitglieder aus verschiedenen Bands von Joe Strummer und sogar von The Pogues griffen zu den Gitarren und los ging's mit den bekanntesten Hits von The Clash - nicht fehlen durften natürlich "London Calling" sowie das dem Granadiner Dichter Lorca gewidmete "Spanish bombs", zum Teil auf Englisch, zum Teil auf Spanisch, insgesamt waren es mindestens zehn.
 
Klar, hier tummelten sich hier auch diverse Vertreter der lebendigen Granadiner Musikszene, darunter auch mein früherer Nachbar Miguel, der mich sogleich dem Schlagzeuger von 091 vorstellte. Klack, klack machte es, als unsere beiden Hornbrillen beim Begrüßungsküsschen etwas unsanft aufeinander stießen.
 
Als der letzte Clash-Song verhallte, machte ich mich auf den kurzen Heimweg und dachte: Was für eine schöne unprätentiöse Feier (in einer bisweilen eher pompösen, ziemlich bourgeoisen Stadt) an einem grauen Montagabend. Und schon fielen auch die ersten Regentropfen ...
 
Damit ihr seht, das dies auch stimmt & nicht etwa gelogen ist, kommt hier noch ein Link

We recommend: Hidden Valleys between Granada and Cordoba - Hiking in Zuheros!

Do you want to combine your Spanish course in Granada with hiking tours? Midway between Cordoba and Granada, in the heart of Andalucia, the tiny white village of Zuheros sits high on the northern flank of the Sierra Subbetica – a beautiful range of hills and a National Park.

The area is a dramatic limestone massif, weathered over millennia into a series of valleys and peaks, making it fantastic walking country. River valleys, tumbling cascades, fabulous views over olive groves, mountain sierras and hillsides sprinkled with red peonies and orchids form the backdrop to the walks.

We recommend the following walk:
A path climbs gently above Zuheros before descending through almond groves to the Rio Bailon. Then, with golden eagles soaring above, you reach Cerro de Bramadero hilltop where you can relax under cork oaks enjoying wonderful valley views. You return past walnut trees and ancient wells on the way to the verdant river gorge that leads back into Zuheros.

A journey through time!

Next week we will offer a guided visit to the cemetery of St. Joseph. This activity will give you a different approach to life and history of Granada.

Constructed urgently in 1805 next to the Nasrid Alixares Palace due to the yellow fever epidemic that gripped the city, is the forerunner of the cemetery known as San José (St. Joseph) today. It has a logical location, in the privileged complex of monuments and landscape of the Alhambra, construced outside the city on the orders of king Charles III.

Successive projects and extensions by important architects and sculptors have definitively fashioned the courtyards we will find on our stroll through the city’s memory.

We will be accompanied along our route, where there is a  lot more to discover than two centuries of history, by memories of  those who lie herre, the artwork and singularity of their pantheons and the coppice surrounding them.
