“He had a vitality and a love for what he did very big and that attracted a lot of attention, in addition to his great professionalism and kindness; We are very sorry for what happened, it is a great loss for the world of song ”. This is how the Adeje City Council remembers the singer Carlos Marín, who died last Sunday at the age of 53 after several days admitted to the ICU of the Royal Manchester Hospital.
The Spanish component of the Il Divo quartet starred, along with the rest of the group, in the only concert offered by this group in Tenerife, on June 15, 2019, at the Costa Adeje golf course. At the presentation press conference, he appeared together with the mayor of Adejero, José Miguel Rodríguez Fraga, and acknowledged that it was a “pleasure” to perform for the first time in Tenerife, an island that, he said, he had visited on several occasions on vacation.
The City Council said yesterday that Marín “was deeply involved” in the Adeje concert – presented five months before at Fitur – and off stage he demonstrated his “closeness, kindness and sympathy.” “At all times he was willing to lend a hand in everything that was asked of him to promote the concert and Costa Adeje,” said the Consistory
The performance in the south of Tenerife was part of the Timeless 15th Anniversary world tour, a tribute by the quartet “to the eternal nature of all music”.
“There will be no shortage of surprises on stage,” Carlos Marín announced in his appearance prior to the concert, among which he cited “some songs that we have never sung before.” More than 7,000 people packed the golf course and enjoyed an unforgettable and, unfortunately, unrepeatable concert.
