15 young people from Can Ros strengthen mental health with music at the Jordi Savall festival in Santes Creus
A group of about fifteen young people from the Can Ros therapeutic school have strengthened their mental health through music during the Jordi Savall festival at Santes Creus. This initiative, promoted by Amalgama7, combined professional training and a concert to improve the emotional health of adolescents in vulnerable situations.
For an entire week, these young people worked with renowned musicians, therapists, and psychologists, acquiring musical and social skills that help them overcome personal difficulties and prepare for a more stable future in the workforce.
The Amalgama7 project and its commitment to mental health
What does the project offer to young people in vulnerable situations?
This project is a unique opportunity for the adolescents of Can Ros, as it combines music with therapy to strengthen their emotional health. The young people not only acquire musical skills but also tools for emotional expression and social development, which are vital for facing their personal situations.
How is musical and professional training combined?
The participants have received training with internationally professional musicians, such as Tcha Limberger, and have also learned aspects of cultural production, such as event management and organizational support. In this way, work habits and responsibility are developed that open doors to future job opportunities.
The concert at the Monastery of Santes Creus: a stage for growth
How has the concert impacted the youths?
Performing on the stage of the Royal Monastery of Santes Creus has been a challenge and an incentive for the adolescents. This final event served to put into practice everything they had learned and to reinforce their self-esteem, with public recognition and the direct support of Maestro Jordi Savall.
What importance does Jordi Savall’s presence have?
The participation and support of Jordi Savall have meant an emotional encouragement for the young people. The maestro has encouraged them to maintain their bond with music, becoming a role model who helps motivate them in their recovery and personal development.
Impact and future of the project in the region
What job opportunities open up for young people thanks to the project?
The project not only seeks to strengthen mental health but also to propose job opportunities through music and cultural production. For many, like Bernat Flotas, it has represented the chance to approach a work environment without leaving aside their personal situation.
What legacy does the project leave within the Jordi Savall festival?
This is the first time Amalgama7 has participated in the festival, adding a social and inclusive dimension to the programming. This brings an added value that connects culture with social inclusion and the emotional health of young people in the region.
