Le nozze di Figaro

Saturday, 3 October 2026 (19:30h) · Santa Cruz de Tenerife

Le nozze di Figaro 3/10 - 19:30h

Ópera de Tenerife opens its season with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's "Le nozze di Figaro", a four-act opera buffa that will be performed in the Symphony Hall of Auditorio de Tenerife. The production, with an approximate running time of 3 hours and 13 minutes (including interval), will be sung in Italian with surtitles in Spanish and English.

The plot unfolds in a house where masters and servants hide secrets, and where laughter serves as a mask for more serious themes such as abuses of power, loves pushed to their limits, and dignities put to the test. The Countess suffers her humiliation in silence, Susanna fights for her freedom, and Figaro contains his rage. All observe each other, aware of the injustice of the system, as the festivities continue.

This production is a collaboration between the Gran Teatre del Liceu and Auditorio de Tenerife. Musical direction is by Pablo González, and stage direction by Marta Pazos. Original choreography is by Andreas Heise, revived by Rober Gómez. Set design is by Max Glaenzel, lighting by Nuno Meira, and costume design by Agustín Petronio. The chorus master is Miguel Ángel Arqued.

On stage, performers include the Sinfónica de Tenerife as the orchestra, the Coro Titular Ópera de Tenerife-Intermezzo and the Centro Internacional de Danza Tenerife.

The cast includes:

  • Susanna: Leonor Bonilla (soprano)
  • Figaro: Jan Antem (baritone)
  • Il conte di Almaviva: José Antonio López (baríbalto)
  • La contessa di Almaviva: Lianna Haroutounian (soprano)
  • Cherubino: Rafael Quirant (sopranist)
  • Marcellina: Leontine Maridat-Zimmerlin (mezzo-soprano)
  • Bartolo: Wojtek Gierlach (bass)
  • Basilio: David Barrera (tenor)
  • Barbarina: Ruth González (soprano)
  • Antonio: Christian Díaz (bass)
  • Don Curzio: Alberto Ballesta (tenor)
  • Prima contadina: Arantxa Cooper (soprano)
  • Seconda contadina: Natividad Oval (soprano)

Access to the hall will not be permitted once the event has started, and entry is only allowed for those aged five and over.
