In Paris for Grand Music
Netrebko and Dudamel
Paris is a city filled with an exciting and romantic charm. Well-known for her cultural and artistic wealth, the ville lumiere has a rich and vibrating musical heart, with her two opera theatres, the Opéra Garnier and the Opéra Bastille, and the three concert halls (Théâtre du Châtelet, Théâtre des Champs-Elysées and Cité de la Musique).
During the week-end 23-25 October 2009, two important musical events will take place there: one of the most loved lyric operas and a refined concern directed by one of the promises of classic music.
On 23rd October, Anna Netrebko will play Mimi in the Boheme by Giacomo Puccini. Considered one of the most fascinating lyric voices, Valery Gergiev discovered her talent when she was cleaning the Marinskij Theater, and later led her to play, within only a few years, roles that were traditionally devolved upon the royal and fussy sopranos of the old school. From Lyudmilla by Glinka to Donizzetti’s Norina and Gilda of the Rigoletto. In 2004 her very first DVD Anna Netrebko – The woman, the voice exceeded, in Europe, the sales of Beyonce and Britney Spears’ DVDs.
The following evening, the enfant prodige of Claudio Abbado, Venezuelan Gustavo Dudamel will direct the Simón Bolívar Youth Orchestra in a concert entirely dedicated to Čajkovskij.
Final outcome of the FESNOJIV (Fundación del Estado para el Sistema de Orquestas Juveniles e Infantiles del Venezuela), the Simón Bolivar Youth Orchestra is one of the most important musical project of the last years, which had a significant impact on the social sphere too. When 16, Gustavo Dudamel became director of the Orchestra symbol of the Sistema, the Simón Bolívar Youth Orchestra. In 2009, 28 years old, Dudamel took in charge the directorship of the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra.
For a luxury stay, Il Sipario Musicale offers first class tickets for both shows and hotel accommodation for two nights, double bedroom and breakfast included at the Hotel Balzac or at the Jolly Lotti.
