O/ENCIA Mona Danival
Stories and music from beyond
Schedule
The most spectacular characters in the world of opera and ballet are the singers, dancers and orchestral musicians who provide the musical accompaniment. But opera and ballet are much more than that! There are many helping hands behind the scenes that the audience never sees. The work of many colleagues is needed to make the miracle happen, but unfortunately too little is said about them. They are the invisible heroes of OPERA, the star of this season of O/ENCIA with Mona Dani. These indispensable professionals will now take centre stage, interacting with the artists and the series' host music historian to show what it takes to be a prompter, set designer, costume designer or even a prop master.
