The WDR Funkhausorchester, led by Wayne Marshall, orchestrates a vibrant dialogue between Leonard Bernstein and George Gershwin. Soprano Elionor Martínez, L'Auditori's resident voice, elevates the performance. The repertoire moves between Bernstein's 'Wonderful Town Overture' and 'Gershwin in Hollywood'. The core of the encounter is 'Rhapsody in Blue', complemented by the 'Candide Overture and Suite' and iconic pieces like 'Summertime' or 'I Feel Pretty'. A crossing that highlights the symbiosis and urban spirit of two 20th-century giants. A co-production with Ibercamera.

The Planns tip
