And now yes, ok?
00:12
And the hands almost all on the ground, when you do the extravaganza.
00:16
And with this you will have...
00:30
We have the utopian objective that at each bell there is a bellman.
00:42
It is an objective that I know is utopian because in Catalonia there are more than 2,000 bells,
00:47
so it will be very difficult to meet.
00:49
But if there is a sensitivity towards the bells,
00:53
and there are more and more people who know how to play them,
00:57
well, we will have more bellmen around Catalonia,
01:00
and it will be easier for us, on the one hand, to maintain the material heritage,
01:04
on the other hand, to recover this immaterial part of the bells,
01:08
and on the other hand, we can also achieve that the bells,
01:13
although they are not a means of communication, because we already have others much more effective,
01:18
but they are a means of communication that reaches everyone within a local community
01:24
and can help to unite this community in specific moments,
01:28
whether they are moments of grief, when there is a deceased, or also moments of celebration.
01:32
They mark these rituals that we also need.
