This powerful, exploratory, and ultimately uplifting musical journey will lead the listener along a path of sound transformation. From these organic sources, an imaginative world of electronics and improvisation emerges, steered by the meeting of two creative musical minds. A concert not quite like any other…

| Olavinlinna Castle, Savonlinna, Savonlinna 57150, Finland Wednesday 10-Jul-13 07:00pm In honour of the 200th anniversary of the birth of Giuseppe Verdi, the Savonlinna Opera Festival is adding to its repertoire one of the best-loved and most frequently-performed operas of all time. For many an opera lover this will mean a long-cherished dream come true: La traviata at last in Savonlinna!
Can a flighty courtesan accustomed to a life of pleasure genuinely fall in love, and does she deserve true happiness? Verdi was clearly inspired by this tragic, beautiful love story about Violetta and Alfredo, built round these fundamental questions. The music of La traviata is some of his very finest: coloratura arias that bubble like champagne, and melodies that play exquisitely on the ear follow one upon the other like a row of sparkling gems, pampering the listener again and again.

| Opernhaus, Zürich, Opernhaus Falkenstrasse 1, Zürich 8008, Switzerland Wednesday 10-Jul-13 07:00pm Libretto by Felice Romani after the novel L’Etrangère
By Charles-Victor Prévost Vicomte d’Arlincourt
Vincenzo Bellini’s operas La sonnambula and Norma have become classics of the bel canto repertoire. La straniera, on the other hand, which Bellini wrote at the age of 27, is rarely seen on the operatic stage, although the highly romantic melodramma moved the audience to veritable raptures during its 1829 première performance at Milan’s Teatro alla Scala. To a libretto by Felice Romani, the opera revolves around a heavily veiled, mysterious stranger who passes through the country. The local inhabitants are afraid of her and believe that she is possessed by the devil. By contrast, Count Arturo, who is just about to marry Isoletta, finds her irresistibly attractive. He has no idea that the stranger is the banished wife of the King of France.
La straniera marks Bellini’s renunciation of Rossini’s opulent style in favour of pure, expressive melody, as Verdi praised in Bellini’s work: “Vi sono melodie lunghe lunghe lunghe, come nessuno ha fatto prima di lui” (There are long, long, melodies like no-one has ever written before him). Richard Wagner was also full of admiration for Bellini’s melodic invention and “genuine passion and sentiment”, and declared that the right singer need only stand up and sing, “and the audience will be in raptures.”
In Zurich’s new production of La straniera, the stage will be graced by Edita Gruberova, the prima donna assoluta of bel canto par excellence. She will be giving her stage début as Alaide at Zurich Opera House, and will continue her successful collaboration with the director Christof Loy in Zurich after productions of Lucrezia Borgia and Roberto Devereux at the Bavarian State Opera. Fabio Luisi, who has frequently championed rarely performed bel canto works, will conduct the production.In Italian with German and English surtitles.Co-production with Theater an der Wien.Fabio Luisi, Conductor Christof Loy, Director Annette Kurz, Set Designer Edita Gruberová, Soprano: Alaide Véronica Simeoni, Soprano: Isoletta Gregory Kunde, Tenor: Count Arturo of Ravenstel Franco Vassallo, Baritone: Baron Valdeburgo Benjamin Bernheim, Tenor: Osburgo Pavel Daniluk, Bass: Signore di Montolino | ||

| Sadler's Wells, London, Rosebery Avenue,, London EC1R 4TN, United Kingdom Wednesday 10-Jul-13 07:30pm Quimeras Legendary flamenco guitarist, composer, dramatist and producer Paco Peña returns to Sadler’s Wells with his latest narrative work Quimeras, directed by Southbank Centre artistic director Jude Kelly. Exploring the lure of travel and the dream of people everywhere of finding a better life - and the profound influence that the African continent has had on European culture - Quimeras tells the story of a group of Africans who have come to Spain in search of work. Over a career that spans more than four decades, Peña has expanded the possibilities of flamenco and changed perceptions of the art form by mining the richness of its traditions while continuing to be inspired by contemporary culture. With Quimeras, he draws on his own experience of living in Andalusia, a gateway to Europe for many north African immigrants. The result is a marriage of both traditional Spanish and African music and dance, creating a spectacle of virtuoso performances and intimate storytelling which was described as “breathtakingly beautiful” (Daily Telegraph). | ||

Debussy’s Prelude and Ravel’s Daphnis and Chloe are impressionistic and colourful depictions of mythical landscapes dominated by the seductive melodies of a flute. They are framed by Faure’s serene and elegiac Requiem and Poulenc’s joyful setting of the Gloria.Image credit: London Concert Choir | ||

Yes, when you have to. The richest man in Vienna wants it that way. He wants cross-over! Let’s mix up classic and pop – and it works. To the delight of the audience and the recognition of the characters on stage.
One of the handsomest and wisest works of the great Munich composer, Richard Strauss, in a production by Robert Carsen. The joy of Strauss!

The consequences of the ‘Flight of the Earls’ were profound and its sequel was the Plantation of Ulster, the renaming of Derry as Londonderry and the building of its city walls in 1613. Hugo O’Neill, descendent of Tyrone and head of his family name, is Portuguese and lives in Setúbal. Stopping over after his ‘Return Flight’ to the ancestral homeland on 8 July, he will speak of the history and culture of Ireland leading up to the events of 400 years ago during this evening of words, music and refreshment.
