Concert Information

For his final Bridgewater Hall concert as the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Philharmonic’s Chief Conductor, Juanjo Mena spirits us away to his Spanish homeland with three works that have long been close to his heart. To begin, a pair of pieces by Isaac Albéniz that sing of the South: the sun-soaked overture to The Magic Opal and the magnificently evocative Rapsodia española. After the interval, a rare treat: a concert performance of Manuel de Falla’s vibrant, stirring one-hour opera La vida breve (‘Life is Short’), a fitting way for Manchester to bid Juanjo a fond farewell.
