Event details
Tenerife Opera presents Hamlet, Ambroise Thomas's French production brings this Shakespearean tragedy to life in the form of a five-act opera.
Hamlet and Ophelie inhabit a court where corruption is blatant, yet disguised as protocol and good manners. Everyone knows something, everyone keeps something to themselves. He is suffocated by the obligation to avenge and the horror of carrying it out; she is lost in the impossibility of being heard. Silence here is not the absence of words, but an excess of lies, half-truths, and manipulations. Like our own time, where information overload coexists with a lack of trust and genuine listening. Amidst ghosts, intrigues, and inner monologues, the world seems immense and silent.
This opera is performed sung in French with surtitles in Spanish and English.

Phenomenal, The Damnation of Faust Berlioz's opera transports the audience to a visionary universe that transcends traditional forms. Inspired by Goethe, this dramatic legend is imbued with lyricism and theatricality. Michel Plasson, invited to conduct this immense fresco, surrounds himself with prestigious soloists. They take turns embodying the poignant Garita, the unsettling Mephistopheles, or the sinister Brander, all revolving around Faust, a tormented figure in search of the absolute. From the Hungarian March and passionate love affairs to the fall into the abyss, each scene reveals the dramaturgy of dazzling music, offering a spectacular and profoundly moving experience.

Event details
Tenerife Opera presents Owen Wingrave, Benjamin Britten's opera in two acts tells the story of a young man who rejects his family's military heritage, refusing a future focused on the military. These performances mark the Spanish premiere of this opera.
Owen says “no” to war in a family that has said “yes” to it for generations without question. His decision to break the cycle of violence places him on the margins, makes him a problem, a traitor. No one wants to hear his ethics; they only want him to obey. It is the story of an individual who, in times of conflict and warmongering rhetoric, dares to stand outside the consensus. The walls of the house, laden with portraits and military glory, become an echo of a system that refuses to change. Faced with the clamor of tradition, his conscience is left alone.
This opera is performed sung in English with surtitles in Spanish and English.
