Barcelona Institutions, Including the Gran Teatre del Liceu, Team Up for Micro-Operas
By Francisco SalazarThe CCCB, the MACBA, and the Liceu have announced “Micro-operas of Today,” an innovative proposal by three key cultural institutions in Barcelona.
The project gathered artists from various fields to offer a fresh perspective on traditional opera and rethink it from a contemporary and inclusive viewpoint.
Starting from a shared concern about the climate crisis, interspecies communication, and the acoustics of nature, the program proposes an itinerary through the Raval district. Each institution will present a 20-minute newly created micro-opera commissioned to a different artistic team, and the three resulting pieces will be shown consecutively on the weekend of Feb. 8 and 9.
The first act, “The sky will not keep the secret,” will take place at the CCCB Theatre and will be followed by “Aura,” at the Chapel of the Convent of the Angels at MACBA. The event will conclude with “You will disinherit the earth” at the Foyer Hall of the Gran Teatre del Liceu.
