Dido and Aeneas - Belinda

Jesús Guridi Conservatorium - Vitoria-Gasteiz

Dido, reina de Cartago, vive atormentada por presagios que amenazan su historia de amor con Eneas, príncipe de Troya. Belinda, dama de la reina, conmina a esta a dejar a un lado dichos presagios y a disfrutar del amor de su príncipe. Pero, efectivamente, esos presagios de se cumplen, por envidia a la reina, las brujas se confabulan y hacen creer a Eneas que debe partir para refundar Troya. Eneas parte y Dido se deja morir.

Inspired by the Central European pietist tradition, the work offers a contemplative journey through the different parts of Christ's body, through music of extraordinary beauty and emotional depth.

The Tales of Offenbach - A Journey to the Moon and Beyond

Staatsoper Unter den Linden, Berlin

A production of the Kinderopernhaus Unter den Linden Musical theatre based on motifs by Jacques Offenbach

Who hasn't once had the thought of escaping everyday life? Leaving all school stress behind and the big and small problems of life along with it. How idyllic it would be on a deserted island, how exciting with a real band of robbers or the ancient gods – and what does it actually look like on the moon? The annually newly formed ensemble of the Kinderopernhaus Unter den Linden embarks together with soloists from the Staatsoper on an adventurous journey through the different worlds that Jacques Offenbach's rousing melodies open up in his operettas. On their furious voyage of discovery, they immerse themselves in gripping stories full of wit and imagination.

Ilargiari Kantari

San Agustín Cultural Centre

Guided by a singing grandmother and her memories, Ilargia kantari will journey through various melodies of Basque folk music and famous songs from the extraordinary era when humankind first walked on the moon. The grandmother will share stories about her life and the moon — a runaway from the Earth and sister of the sun, according to Basque mythology. She will intersperse musical pieces, some of which are directly related to the moon.
