A Journey Through the Lyrical Soul

This exceptional program proposes a fascinating dialogue between the two pillars of vocal music: the majesty of international Opera and the passionate effervescence of Spanish Zarzuela. Under the masterful direction of Maestro Manuel Tévar, the Atlántida Chamber Orchestra unfolds a sound tapestry that ranges from the most heartbreaking arias of Italian verismo to the most vibrant romances of our lyrical heritage.

The evening invites the viewer on an unprecedented emotional journey, where technical virtuosity is put at the service of the dramatic narrative. It is not just a succession of famous pieces, but a reinvention of the genre that seeks to connect with the sensibilities of the contemporary public through orchestral excellence. From the formal rigor of the great European composers to the authentic freshness of the works of Chueca or Sorozábal, every measure is designed to celebrate the beauty of the human voice and the narrative power of the orchestra, consolidating this concert as one of the essential events of the Atlantis season.
