Baní.- The Perelló Cultural Center celebrated the arrival of Christmas with a majestic symphonic concert, held in partnership with the National Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of maestro José Antonio Molina.
The 2025 Christmas Concert, in its twelfth edition, brought together prominent Dominican artists such as Maridaría Hernández, Frank Ceara, and Xiomara Fortuna, the latter as a special guest, along with the Koribe choir, who offered a musical evening of approximately 80 minutes to a select audience gathered on the esplanade of the Cultural Center.
The night began with a repertoire of traditional Christmas songs with symphonic arrangements, including "Overture a Cradle in Bethlehem", "Silent Night", "Joy to the World", "Jingle Bells", "White Christmas", "The Christmas Song" and "Mariposa de amor".

The protocol act was headed by Manuel Pozo Perelló, executive president of Industrias Banilejas, SAS (INDUBAN) and member of the Council of the Perelló Cultural Center, accompanied by Julia Castillo, director of the institution.
During his welcoming remarks, Castillo highlighted that this twelfth edition of the Symphonic Christmas Gala Concert reaffirms the commitment of the Perelló-Abreu Family, who after 15 years of cultural patronage in the Southern region and throughout the country, continues to bet on a more prosperous, cultured, and humanist Dominican Republic.
For his part, Manuel Pozo Perelló emphasized that this concert represents a firm commitment to the community of the Southern region, especially with the province of Peravia, by facilitating access to high-level artistic shows.
“We are bringing this concert to Baní with the same artistic and technical quality as the great stages of the world,” he affirmed.
