Concerts by the Brno Philharmonic Orchestra in the Janáček Theatre are ending due to the extensive reconstruction of the building. You can see the last performances of the philharmonic in the theatre tomorrow and the day after. In the programme with the title Čarodějná láska (Love, the Magician) Spanish musicians and flamenco dancers will perform.
The last concert in the cycle in the Janáček Theatre has three works in its programme: the Suite from the opera El mozo de mulas and two compositions by Manuel de Falla. These are the piano concerto Nights in the Gardens of Spain, inspired by French impressionism and the one-act pantomime ballet El amor brujo (Love, the Magician) on the theme of an old Andalusian legend, in which Spanish artists including flamenco dancers will perform together with the philharmonic. Under the baton of the conductor Jörg Birhance the soloists Rocío Bazán, Manuel de la Luz, Manuel Herrera, Agustín Diassera and Alejandro Picó-Leonís will perform. Ana Morales and David Pérez will dance accompanied by the Brno Philharmonic Orchestra.
“You can look forward to an evening of Spanish passion, impressions and fiery dances. You will hear for example the suite from the unfinished opera El mozo de mulas by the early 20th century composer Antonio José, who died during the Spanish Civil War,” adds the dramaturge Vítězslav Mikeš.
The concerts will take place 9 and 10 February from 7:30 in the Janáček Theatre.
