Diário de Leiria8 September 2026 at 13:00

Barrenta is preparing to celebrate the 25th National Accordion Players Meeting, an important milestone in the musical tradition that the association has been promoting for a quarter of a century. The event is scheduled for the 26th, the date marking this special jubilee edition.

The meeting aims to establish itself as the largest edition ever, demonstrating the growth and importance that this musical tradition has achieved over the years. The accordion, as a traditional instrument, maintains a central role in Portuguese musical culture, and this event annually brings together players from various regions of the country.

Over 25 editions, the National Accordion Players Meeting has contributed to the preservation and enhancement of this musical art, bringing together musicians who share the passion for the accordion and its traditions. Barrenta thus assumes a fundamental role in the organization and promotion of this cultural celebration.

Exodus finally shows how it plays and why time can become its best narrative weapon
