weekend, November 2nd, Which can be classified as fraternal privilege, Dedicated to highlighting an immeasurably rich religious heritage spanning centuries of history. First, with the extraordinary procession … The museum on the 450th anniversary of its founding, Which presented an image lost for more than a century, and was restored on this occasion with the Mother of Stabat of the Christ of Expiration and the Virgin of the Waters. Sunday afternoon starring the Queen of All Saints and the Virgin Amparo.
In these short days, In the middle of the high tourist season and almost Christmas lighting up, in the perfect month of the dead, These two glory days coincided again for the second year in a row in the calendar. Which once again reveals the importance of these images for the city for many different reasons.
Each one in his own way and personality Two sculptures by the same sculptor and with a classic seal. Time does not seem to pass by in these processions that satisfy true brotherhood, brother, brother. For this reason, every November, they attend a unique event, where everything is measured, but that nature that seems to have been lost little by little in other fraternities is preserved and remains intact here.
At the last light of the day the Queen of All Saints emerged from the Omnium Sanctorum, In a complicated maneuver for Antonio Santiago and the Costaleros, due to the door cover and the large dimensions of the waste, and accomplished with perfection.
This procession There was a hint of sadness: this was the first time this holiday had been celebrated without María del Mar Tristan presentheiress to the Master Tejera band legacy, sister and former board member of the company. But in reality it was so. His father, José Manuel Tristan, knew this well; That’s why he didn’t miss the date with his virgin, with his brothers. She knows full well that she has become one of the angels upholding the majestic rule of the Queen of All Saints, and an example of improvement for her family moving forward.
And despite the remorse, those unexplained issues that can cause a crisis of faith, Tejera’s manager was there, at the forefront, like the entire musical formation, which, Although it is not experiencing its finest moments, it maintains a level of maximum excellence, with fantastic repertoire throughout the afternoon and evening.
On this occasion, the Queen of All Saints wore the light blue gown, one of the four gowns she keeps in her repertoire. next to, The image restored the jeweled crown, something that had not happened in half a century. After six o’clock in the evening, that is, almost at night, the Virgin Mary entered Peres Mincheta Street to the sounds of the “Hinesta Coronada”, walking down a street very dear to this brotherhood, and where many neighbors were hoping to see its owner. Continue via Palacios Malaver, taking Cruz Verde and Guadiana and leaving again for Peris Mencheta to enter the González Quijano Pass, one of the most emblematic places of this exit. The company usually changes its itinerary every year with the aim of visiting the homes of all residents of the neighborhood.
The beginning of Guadiana Street was notable when Tejera performed Farfan’s “La Esperanza de Triana”, with all instruments and vocals. This formation reclaims the musical works in their own words, as they did with “Pasan los Campanilleros” in the San Vicente Rosary Procession in the year of the centenary of the composition. From there, the procession continues via Relator, Jesús de la Sentencia, Amargura, Plaza Calderón de la Barca, passing through the Fair Market until returning to its headquarters where it closes its services.
Meanwhile, in Magdalena, The Virgin of Amparo left through the main door of the parish, the last time she would do so in her procession without being crowned. A year from now, on Sunday, José Ángel Saez Meneses will crown it at home, and in the afternoon, he will emerge victorious, which will have an unusual and longer route and will include a visit to the City Hall of Seville. To this we must add the dawn rosary that will be held in the month of May in the Royal Chapel of the Seville Cathedral and the prostration before the Virgin of Kings.
On this occasion, The procession passed through the old neighborhood of Magdalenathrough areas such as Santas Patronas, López de Arenas, Galera or Almansa, ideal streets to enjoy a wonderful and thoughtful procession, with a large participation of brothers in the procession, full of brothers, streets with brothers from Amparo, as the hangings showed. Parade to perfectionAnd know how to get from the first to the last without causing crowds. Even so, the Amparo group has good taste.
Reference measured by Carmen de SalterasIt included pieces such as “Bajo tu Amparo”, “La Virgen de las Angustias”, “Soleá, dame la mano”, “Virgen del Valle” and other wonderful musical levels, This also characterizes the procession that puts the finishing touches on the Glorias of Seville. Although there will be more departures until December 22, This date represents before and after, Because from now on the sects will condense into brotherhoods of penance until the long-awaited Holy Week.
It was the end of glory At the same time, the beginning of the year of the Coronation of the Virgin Amparo, which will be full of events and devotions already scheduled, an essential fraternity of Seville.
