Spectacle Announced for May

Orchestra director Zubin Mehta has made an arrangement with the Catalan Troupe La Fura dels Baus that it stage the Wagnerian opera “The Ring” in the Palau de les Arts in the City of Arts and Sciences in Valencia next May. This has been confirmed by the Troupe’s Artistic Director Alex Ollé. The new work will form part of Maestro Mehta’s plans for a first Mediterranean Festival that will take place next year, combining operas and concerts, and could be somewhat similar to the Salzburg Festival.

Meanwhile, the Fura dels Baus is busy putting the final touches to the staging of two operas it will present at the Garnier Theatre of Opera in Paris next January: “The Diary of a Disappearance” by Leos Janacek and “Bluebeard’s Castle” written by Bela Bartok.
