The ultimate goal is to reach the number of 5,000 donations and educate the public that donating blood is a quick, easy and very beneficial process since each donation is useful for three people.

Last January 3 took place at Basilica of Santa Maria del Mar the concert “Veus per l’Esperança” in which Ideal Cocktail Bar participated as a sponsor. Montserrat Caballé and her daughter Montserrat Marti along with Jordi Galán, accompanied on piano by Andrea Alvarez, staged a charity concert, an initiative promoted by the Oncology Service Hospital Clínic of Barcelona.

Among the many intense moments that were experienced one of the most important was when the soprano performed by the very first time the song ‘Habanera’, composed expressly for her by the musician Vangelis. However the music was varied and the musical programme included songs such as the West Side Story movie duet, played by Martí and Galán, and ending with the three artists singing the toast of ‘La Traviata’ by Verdi.
