Monument to the teacher Mas i Ros in Caldes de Malavella in the region of La Selva province of Gerona,Catalonia,Spain
Francesc Mas i Ros (Caldes de Malavella 1901-1985) was a composer with a very extensive oeuvre and great popularity in the sardana world, having composed some fifty dance pieces and nearly 250 sardanas. His native town dedicated this monument to him where he concentrates his love for his country. Thus the monument on one side shows a relief of some sardana players and on the other the score of the sardana Pueblo de Caldes that he composed in 1979. At the ends are the shield of the province of Girona and on the other the shield of Caldes de Malavella . Another symbolism that appears in the monument is the four bars of the coat of arms of Catalonia. Caldes de Malavella is located halfway between the Costa Brava and the Sierra de las Guilleries, the Selva plain, rich in contrasts, heritage and tradition. Thus, Caldes de Malavella is located in a strategic place of communications, and for this reason, it has always been a land of passage and a land of footprints. The trace of all the civilizations that have inhabited our country is present in the town.
