With Chinese New Year and Andalusia Day behind us, spring plans for March are pressing. Free events at the Cervantes Cinema, the Swing Festival, and the Bolivian Carnival are just some of the events you should make a note of. Another is this week’s free event: a symphony concert at Seville Cathedral.
This Tuesday, March 3, at 7:00 p.m., the majesty of Seville Cathedral will be combined with the great works of Haydn and Wagner selected for the event. A musical encounter by the 5th and 6th Grade Professional Education Orchestra, conducted by Professor Francisco José Cintado.
As we mentioned, this is a free concert, with free admission until capacity is reached, through the Puerta del Príncipe at 6:30 p.m.
What pieces will be performed?
The musical journey is divided into two essential stops in the European repertoire:
-
First, attendees will be able to enjoy Joseph Haydn’s Symphony No. 26 “Lamentatione . ” It is a piece charged with the intensity of the Sturm und Drang (storm and impulse) movement, whose spiritual depth seems tailor-made for the cathedral’s naves.
-
The evening will culminate with the symphonic suite from Parsifal by the romantic composer Richard Wagner.
This is a great opportunity to hear the best of Seville’s young talent in a World Heritage Site without paying an entrance fee.
