Thanks Laura. Unfortunately the links are all in Catalan so I will need to do more research. Has anyone seen them? Is it worth watching them perform outside of a festival?

Yes, they are worth seeing if you can. We just returned from three months in Barcelona. We were at the Santa Eulalia festival at night, and lucked out being at the very bottom as two of them (with lights!) went up. The music (snare drums and odd reed flutes) was fascinating. I took movies.

hi,

in this webpage there are a calendar of performances for the whole year (they usually update during the year,so check again in July) not only in Barcelona but around Catalonia:

The webpage included a map...... :-)

Also... you can see the training sesions also, because it's open to every one..there are 6 groups in Barcelona, so you can find some of them near your hotel probably....

Thanks everyone. It is something completely different from the US and I would love to see it:)
