The closing concert of the II Trobada Coral Lina Bufí in Ibiza has changed venue and starting time. The performance, originally scheduled to take place at the Church of Santo Domingo (El Convent), will now be held at the Church of Santa Creu in Ibiza Town on Sunday, 15 November, at 20:30.
The Consell d'Eivissa announced the change on Friday, 13 November. The concert will feature Cor Amics de sa Música, directed by Nèlida Boned Bufí, and will also celebrate the choir's 50th anniversary.
Admission will be free, subject to available capacity.
The performance marks the conclusion of the second edition of the Lina Bufí Choral Gathering, a cultural programme bringing together choirs from across Ibiza in a series of concerts held in churches throughout the island.
Change of Venue and Time for the Closing Concert
The final concert was initially announced for 20:00 on Sunday, 15 November, at the Church of Santo Domingo, also known as El Convent, in Ibiza Town.
However, the Consell has confirmed that the performance has been moved to the Church of Santa Creu, with the starting time delayed by 30 minutes to 20:30.
The change affects the final concert only. The performance will still take place on Sunday, 15 November, and Cor Amics de sa Música remains the featured choir.
Residents planning to attend should therefore take note of the updated venue and time.
Cor Amics de sa Música Celebrates Its 50th Anniversary
The responsibility of bringing the gathering to a close falls to Cor Amics de sa Música, one of the longest-established choral groups in Ibiza.
Directed by Nèlida Boned Bufí, the choir will mark its 50th anniversary as part of the closing performance.
The anniversary gives the final concert particular significance, recognising five decades of musical activity and the contribution of the choir to the island's cultural and choral life.
Its participation also reflects the gathering's wider aim of recognising the work of local musical groups and giving them opportunities to perform in different communities across Ibiza.
Six Concerts Bringing Together 19 Choirs Across Ibiza
The II Trobada Coral Lina Bufí has brought together 19 choral formations in a programme of six concerts between 24 October and 15 November.
The performances have taken place in churches across the island's five municipalities, using historic religious buildings as settings for local choral music.
The initiative was recovered by the Consell d'Eivissa following the gathering held in January 2024. This second edition carries the name of Lina Bufí, in recognition of her important contribution to the development of music education in Ibiza.
By bringing together different generations and styles of local choirs, the programme aims to give greater visibility to the island's choral community, make music accessible to residents and strengthen the connection between culture, heritage and local communities.
A Tribute to Lina Bufí and Her Contribution to Music Education
The gathering is named after Lina Bufí, the name by which Catalina Bufí Juan (1940–2024) was known.
She was an influential figure in the history of music education in Ibiza, contributing to the development of formal musical training on the island.
A pianist and teacher, she dedicated much of her professional life to educating new generations of musicians and helping establish the foundations of regulated music studies in Ibiza.
Naming the gathering after her recognises the lasting contribution she made to the island's musical development.
