With the approach of warmth, José Manuel and Mari Carmen
change their skin. They stopped the ice chest and snared a trailer stacked with
around 36 tons of good music to visit every one of the towns of the territory
of A Coruña, verbena, designed benefactor. Furthermore, when we say "all
people groups" Is practically exacting.
This Galician marriage has been laboring for three decades
in the realm of national and global transport, yet since 2006 they have been
communicating the late spring a very long time by setting up and disassembling
the portable phase of the El Combo Dominicano ensemble , with which they go all
through the entire of Coruña .
He drives; she is responsible for dealing with the lodging
each night. What's more, them two twist one next to the other in the gathering
and disassembling of the trailer-arrange: a trailer of 12 meters in length that
transforms each night into a structure right around 8 meters high, 7 profound
and 17 long.
This tremendous setting and its resulting make-up in view of
lights, screens and canvases is the characteristic environment where each late
spring night the 16 Artists who make up the Dominican Combo and that for around
10 years have been strolling their blend of pop and Latin rhythms all through A
Coruña. José Manuel and Mari Carmen withdraw to the side of the obstruction
when the music begins. They are three hours of show with bunches of cumbia,
merengue and bachata.
At the point when the last harmony is doused, it is
important to dismantle, re-overlay the stage, snare the trailer and rest a
couple of hours , just before leaving for the following town. "Working
late around evening time , " she confesses.This is the everyday of our
heroes amid the four in number summer months. We exploit a visit to Galicia to
meet the couple and see them in real life. This is the everyday existence of
marriage and its "family" of artists.
Robotized work
There are five hours left to begin the show booked for the
occasions. We are in a town in A Coruña. It doesn't make a difference, since it
could be anybody. Truth be told, the arrangements are precisely the same in
every territory. Toward the finish of a person on foot promenade, Jose Manuel
moves the Volvo right and left to put the trailer in the correct place .
Through the mirrors is guided by Mari Carmen, who is making
signs. It is as yet a while before the sun goes down, the rambla is filled and
the music begins, yet there is no opportunity to lose. The marriage unfastens
the trailer, fixes it to the ground and is organized to level it . Jose Manuel,
who in his initial years played the drums in a gathering - "until the
point that I trim my hair and got into a truck driver" - , he stops his
head a couple of meters away . "In the event that there is room, I
endeavor to move it further, in light of the fact that amid the show I attempt
to get a little head, and the less the music is heard, the better . "
The driver perceives that with such huge numbers of years of
involvement in this kind of transport, decibels are not a major issue with
regards to nodding off. They open portals, put security shafts, unfurl metal
boards, level again ... the stage starts to come to fruition . HE Widens and
develops. A water driven pump with four merchants, one for every leg, is in
charge of lifting the base stage, which ascends to two meters.
"We do this piece of the montage alone," says Mari
Carmen while settling one of the metal shafts that backings part of the stage.
"Before long, whatever remains of the altering group and the executive of
the band - Cirano, a Dominican performer who has been in Spain for a long time
- will start to move puts away, set lights, sound hardware ... " , A
marginally harder employment that requires more youthful backs.
Nonetheless, says Mari Carmen in the symphony does not tire
physical work, which have effectively exceptionally computerized. "What
debilitate is the night, and stand such huge numbers of hours . " Our
heroes don't lose the grin while concluding the get together. They have been
doing this for quite a long time and their demeanor oozes a blend of
acquiescence and confidence: "You need to stay and oppose," says José
Manuel."We have had 5 trailers working with natural product on national
and worldwide courses, however circumstances are different . " Mari
Carmen, who likewise has a permit however inclines toward not to take the
truck, perceives that you need to coarseness your teeth: "Now, at 52, you
need to take what is required . "
Crafted by our hero does not end when the stage is as of now
set. Once the music starts, Mari Carmen is set at the foot of the stairs that
offers access to the structure and is responsible for controlling the general
population. "You must be exceptionally watchful, particularly at last,
when individuals are drinking. They snare the canvas, they need to climb ...
what's more, I get him by the midriff, I put a hit the dance floor with them
and I clarify that they can not go up . It is better for a lady to do this
work, in light of the fact that on the off chance that it is a man who gives
them a reproach, they can turn out to be more tense . "
Cirano touches base in front of an audience a hour after our
marriage has started set-up. The ensemble executive is joined by David, Ele and
Flaqui, three extravagance associates to leave screens, lights and sound.Mari
Carmen and José Manuel keep on collaborating in the get together assignments,
albeit now they are somewhat more casual. The greater part of the operation is
as of now done and soon the performers will touch base to begin the sound
tests.
Not at all like the match of transporters and the gathering
colleagues, the performers and the artists rest each night in Santiago de
Compostela, and they move from that point to the place of the show. not
pioneers from lodging to inn.
In the interim rattling metal trunks, links, tape and
lights, we talked for some time with the institute of matriculation of the
gathering, Cirano . This eared Dominican has been driving the ensemble for a
long time visiting Galicia. Their blend of Latin and pop cadence has made them
a reference of the Galician mainstream celebrations, with a plan of shows that
amid the long stretch of July can achieve the 29 exhibitions. The gathering is
comprised of Canarian and Dominican individuals. In the islands they have their
base and there they make shows practically consistently.
In any case, amid the mid year they exploit the draw that
they have in Galicia to play day by day amid those long stretches of
substantial workload. "We are something like a family," says Cirano
while pointing a finger at the wedding of transporters. "We have been
working with Mari Carmen and José Manuel since 2006. We do the late spring
visit together, however when the occasions come they will go to the Canaries or
us to their home in Barrantes . "
They experience their specialty with extraordinary force,
both the transporters and the craftsmen. Furthermore, the affinity is flawless,
however dependably with a couple of unfaltering principles: "The group
needs to work with a considerable measure of train and dependability,"
says Cirano. "Just along these lines would it be able to work like a clock
amid the four months of concentrated work . "
Consistently, when the mid year months arrive, the trailer
goes by watercraft from the Canary Islands to the port of Seville. There, José
Manuel is in charge of snaring him to his Volvo FH12 and transfer it to Galicia
, where he will begin the show. "The thought," saysCirano, who is
additionally the proprietor of the trailer, is to change the scene one year
from now. I might want to get another trailer . "
The venture is not low, clearly, but rather notwithstanding
the late spring rocking the bowling alley in Galicia, the symphony has its circuit
of exhibitions in the Canary Islands amid whatever is left of the year, and
furthermore lease the phase for exceptional occasions, for example, Carnival.
When they complete the sound tests, it touches supper and
catch powers for a night of Latin discharge.Jose Manuel will resign a while to
rest in the lodge, and Mari Carmen will have his spot as"security
boss" on the stage stepping stool. At 6 o'clock the shedding starts to be
disassembled, and after two hours the trailer recoups its ordinary appearance.
Touch at that point to rest in the lodging. The following day he sits tight for
another town, different gatherings ... also, a similar bliss on the stage. The
one that these craftsmen and our two Galician transporters distil.
