The competition, organised by the \u201cAl-Mosaquer\u201d General Association of Moors and Christians in collaboration with Moj\u00e1car Council, will be dedicated to the Mora Aljama Mud\u00e9jar Comparsa and will remain open until the 19th of February 2027.<\/h3>\n

Moj\u00e1car presents a new edition of the \u201cAl-Mosaquer\u201d National Moors and Christians Marches Composition Competition<\/strong>, an initiative now in its fifth edition that aims to foster musical talent and expand the repertoire of one of the municipality\u2019s most emblematic festivals.<\/p>\n

This year, the competition will be dedicated to the Mora Aljama Mud\u00e9jar Comparsa<\/strong>, for which participants must compose an original, previously unpublished march. The competition offers 1,800 euros in prizes<\/strong>, with 1,300 euros for the winning work, provided by the Association, and 500 euros for the runner-up, awarded by Moj\u00e1car Council.<\/p>\n

The Mayor of Moj\u00e1car, Francisco Garc\u00eda Cerd\u00e1<\/strong>, has highlighted the importance of this initiative: \u201cMoors and Christians is part of our identity and one of Moj\u00e1car\u2019s most emblematic celebrations. This competition allows us to promote our festivities beyond the municipality and to recognise the talent of those who help make them even greater through music.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The Culture Councillor, Noem\u00ed Linares Ortiz<\/strong>, encouraged composers to take part: \u201cThis competition is an opportunity to discover new musical works and to continue enriching the repertoire that accompanies our comparsas during the parades.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
