Bucharest Days – Taking a Walk Through Bucharest’s History
MUSIC ACCOMPANYING BUCHAREST DAYS
On Saturday night, the eyes of Bucharest turned to Izvor Park, which is next to the second largest building in the world: the Romanian Palace of Parliament. It was here where spectators were dazzled by performances from some of the most popular local artists, but also from the Canadian singer Bryan Adams. It had certainly been a while since the artist’s last show in Romania, but the local fans’ patience was rewarded with an amazing recital. The show ended with an impressive water and fire extravaganza and fireworks which left the participants speechless for minutes in a row.
Some of the Bucharest citizens were curious to catch the performance of one of the most talked-about local figure of the moment. Costel Busuioc, who left for Spain to work as a house painter, enrolled in the “Hijos de Babel” competition and won a deal with the Sony BMG record label. His special abilities, which caught the eye of the world, turned him into a real star in his home country. His compatriots got the chance to hear him sing on Saturday night, when a considerable number of people gathered in front of the National Bank of Romania especially for this event.
The festivities did not stop there. On Sunday, those passionate about music, no matter the genre, could enjoy several concerts held by bands and fanfares. Also, the Globus Circus brought all the childhood magic back to our lives by engaging in a breath-taking performance in the centre of the city, thus proving to the world that the Romanian circus is another thing the country should take pride in.
BUCHAREST URBAN ART FESTIVAL – SECOND EDITION
Another point of attraction on Bucharest days was the Urban Art Festival, which included architectural projections on the Palace of Parliament and in Constitutiei Square, covering domains like painting, graphics, photography, graffiti and digital art.
The description above barely does the Bucharest Days celebrations justice. It is difficult to capture the unique atmosphere that took over the streets of the city and mesmerized its inhabitants. There is only one solution if you truly want to feel what they felt: that is to join them next year, on the 550th official anniversary of Bucharest. Something tells me you will not regret it.
