Vocal and scenic splendor in the 'Aida' of 'Opera Friday'
The Campoamor box office hung the sign “no tickets” for this only performance of Aida of the cycle Friday OperaThe occasion deserved it: Verdi's beautiful music, a balanced cast full of energy and talent, an expanded and fully functioning orchestra and choir, and the attractive stage design of Franco Zeffirelli, executed in detail under the stage direction of Vivien Hewitt, constituted a call that could not be renounced.

Balearic Islands
Zarzuela with delicacies
So far the context, but we need to talk about the filling. Two delicacies from the land, with names and lineages, such as the Menorcan Maria Camps and the Mallorcan Joan LainezIn the two duets they sang together, Todos lo sabes, from La tabernera del puerto and Le van a escucha, from Doña Francisquita, they were warm and precise, as if they had sung them together all their lives. And we know that Laínez's life as a singer is short, for now.
But it also seemed the opposite when he did it alone, as I displayed composure, balance and confidence, a demonstration of something more than professionalism. It's called talent and work. Two characteristics that never work separately. He received the great ovation at dusk, when he performed the famous No puede ser, by Sorozábal. The best known, I would say, was the only concession to the gallery.

The main one was a party
Zarzuela in triple part, which, as Pablo Mielgo confessed, microphone in hand, had arisen from the many requests received regarding the minor genre, our operetta, often maligned and most of them unfairly. These are things of prejudice. On the other hand, the director of the Simfònica explained that the great difference between the great opera and the zarzuela lies mainly in the plots, epic-melodramatic the first and everyday the second. Hence the great acceptance of a majority public. Having said this, a concert that had already been offered in Maó began and the following day it would be performed in the Auditori de Manacor.
The voices of Joan Lainez and María Camps starred in the recital.

Knife fight with swallows chirping
In this opera, the tenor already sings during the overture; in Amerang, he does so from a castle window, where he is lulling Lola, the wife of the carter Alfio. Santuzza, who loves Turiddu in vain, suffers visibly at the inn table. The knife fight (with a rather small knife) takes place, contrary to the libretto, on the open stage at the end: Brute force is public. But the audience is not on stage: the chorus, which symbolises the rigid society and which should really be there all the time, sings from the arcades... but with a very loud voice.

Music Review | Voices for Cecilia
In the session, two proper names, that of the French organist Jean Pierre Lecadey (who replaced the initially planned Joan Seguí, who cancelled the event due to illness) and the Majorcan tenor Joan Laínez who is gradually increasing his resume by incorporating new works and styles into his repertoire.
Laínez is becoming a voice to be reckoned with, as he can technically and musically handle a recital with piano as well as one accompanied by a more powerful instrument such as the organ. And so it was in the concert we are discussing, as alongside one of the greats of the keyboard, Lecadey, Laínez never remained in the background, but moved at the same level of interpretation, especially in the first two interventions, two solid and profound songs by Max Reger, offered with good diction and great sense.
