Vídeo amb la partitura i la pronunciació dels textos
We decided it was essential to make a video recording of all the songs in Catalan to allow the listener to follow the sheet music and song on the screen and to enable these compositions to be heard and enjoyed around the world. Various members of the Bonet family have participated, lending their voice to these poetic readings. We have grouped the pieces into different cycles following the organization Narcís Bonet himself used.

Tres melodies sobre Diego Sabiote. (Three Songs for Poems by Diego Sabiote)
Based on poems by Diego Sabiote (1944) Narcís Bonet swiftly became seduced by the atmosphere and power emerging from the short poems of the Andalusian poet and philosopher Diego Sabiote soon after they first met in Mallorca in the 1990s through Catalina Binimelis, a friend of the family.
Dedicated to Catalina, the first song, Espera el atardecer (Wait Till Dusk), was completed in May 2008.
Narcís wrote the second piece, Última canción (The Final Song), in January 2010 as a homage to the great pianist Alicia de Larrocha (Barcelona, 23 May 1923 - Barcelona, 25 September 2009) on her death.
En el primer canto (In the First Song) was composed in May 2011 and dedicated to me to celebrate twenty years of marriage.
Narcís Bonet wrote all three pieces in the small village of Ichy, our little hideaway, where we liked to go to spend time and work. Narcís now lies in peace in the local cemetery where he was buried on 18 January 2019.
