Barcelona Overtura Spring Festival: Daniil Trifonov, Valery Gergiev, Mariinsky Theatre Orchestra

About the Event

Thrill to the power of Russian music. Barcelona opens its arms and its heart to one of the most exciting pianists of the current era, Daniil Trifonov. With mentor and countryman, Valery Gergiev, and his Mariinsky Theatre Orchestra, Trifononv performs Rachmaninov's notoriously‐difficult Third Piano Concerto.

Prokofiev's historical cantata 'Alexander Nevsky' brings together the Russians and their hosts — the Orfeó Català provides the massed voices for this epic work. Truly an evening no music lover will want to miss.

Barcelona opens its doors to celebrate its unique artistic and cultural heritage in the annual Barcelona Obertura spring festival. Bringing together the city’s three international stages – the internationally‐renowned opera house Gran Teatre del Liceu, the exquisite art nouveau Palau de la Música Catalana, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and L’Auditori, Barcelona’s modern concert hall, acclaimed for its exceptional acoustic – the festival presents some of the greatest names in classical music, underlining Barcelona’s role as the cultural hub of the Mediterranean.
