On Friday 2nd May at 21:00, St. Francis Square in Victoria will once again come alive with the sounds of the past as Memorji returns for its third edition. This free open-air concert is a celebration of Gozo’s rich musical legacy, blending beloved local compositions, forgotten gems, and timeless international classics.
This year’s edition carries a special significance: it marks the 50th anniversary of The Tramps’ Xemx, one of Malta’s most iconic songs.
This year too, Memorji features a stellar line-up of singers, including Ivan Grech, Pamela Bezzina, Daniel Cauchi, Sarah Bonnici, and John Cassar (il-Cash). The singers will be backed by the Memorji band: Mark Grech (bass), Danny Magro (guitar), Pawlu Portelli (drums), Jonathan Camilleri (guitar), and Ismael Azzopardi (keys), and the backing vocalists: Angela Tirchett, Jackie Pace Delicata, and Christine Gatt.
As always, Memorji is more than a concert; it’s a curated musical journey through time. The concert is hosted by Keane Cutajar and Clare Agius. Held on a long weekend following the 1st of May public holiday, Memorji is a must-attend event for anyone spending the weekend in Gozo.
