Madrid, February 16, 2021.- The second edition of the Banco Sabadell Foundation Young Talents Cycle, an initiative organized by the Friends of the Teatro Real Foundation in collaboration with the Banco Sabadell Foundation and with the participation of students from the Reina Sofía School of Music, will be inaugurated on February 18. This second edition will incorporate training sessions by some of the musical and stage directors participating in the Teatro Real’s productions, who will help young musicians to deepen their knowledge of the operas programmed in the current season, linking their explanations to the Cycle’s repertoire.
The sessions, which will take place in the Sala Gayarre of the Teatro Real and in the Sony Auditorium of the Reina Sofía School of Music, aim to provide a training experience and a professional opportunity for young students of the Reina Sofía School of Music, while offering cultural and artistic content with free access to the Young Friends of the Teatro Real, students and Young Friends of the Reina Sofía School of Music.
Taking as a reference the operas of the Teatro Real’s 2020-2021 Season, the cycle opens with overtures by Wagner, whose opera Siegfried is being performed these days on the Madrid stage.
The second concert will feature a classical and romantic repertoire, from Joseph Haydn to Vincenzo Bellini, in line with the opera Norma, on stage during the month of March at the Teatro Real.
The third event of the Cycle will offer works by Benjamin Britten, author of Peter Grimes, and for the last concert a program dedicated to the musical baroque has been designed, with pieces by Johann Sebastian Bach, Benedetto Marcello and Antonio Vivaldi, the latter author of the opera Orlando Furioso, whose premiere will take place next June at the Teatro Real.
