Madrid’s Teatro Real books Carnegie Hall debut
NewsThe opera house will stage a ‘Grand Spanish Gala’ on September 15 at Carnegie Hall, New York.
The all-Spanish evening with the Real’s orchestra, conducted by Juanjo Mena, will include Albeniz’s Iberian Suite, De Falla’s suite from ‘The Three-Cornered Hat’ and a sheaf of zarazuelas.
How can i take my grandparents to watch this show.
The photo is from a production of Schönberg’s Moses und Aaron ten years ago.
*Correction: it was a co-production Opera National de Paris and Teatro Real of Moses und Aaron in 2015, not 10 years ago.
Great news. Spanish music is woefully under-represented in the US.
True but not the music listed.
This site should post a “not safe for work” warning.
There is not such thing as Real’s orchestra. The orchestra hired to play in the pit is the Orquesta Sinfonica de Madrid.

Pretty standard (and not exciting) fare.
