Pamboliada Rondalla des Pla

folk · rondalla · acoustic
Pamboliada Rondalla des Pla is a musical group from Mallorca rooted in the Spanish rondalla tradition – an ensemble style based on plucked string instruments such as mandolins and guitars. The name "des Pla" refers to Es Pla, the central plain of Mallorca, reflecting the group's strong regional identity. The rondalla tradition dates back to medieval Spain, encompassing forms such as estudiantinas and murgas that performed publicly. Pamboliada Rondalla des Pla keeps this heritage alive on the island, performing at popular community events – including in Petra, where the group has invited audiences to join a "ballada popular" and a collective cantada at the Plaça del Convent, held simultaneously at several locations across Mallorca. The group represents the vibrant folk music scene of the island, placing regional identity and communal music-making at its core.
