Santa Cruz de Tenerife acogerá entre los días 10 y 14 de julio la tercera edición de MAPAS, el Mercado de las Artes Performativas del Atlántico Sur, con un total de 18 montajes teatrales y un espectáculo de teatro de calle. El Teatro Guimerá, La Granja Espacio de Creación, el Auditorio de Tenerife Adán Martín, el IES Alcalde Bernabé Rodríguez y la calle Castillo serán los diversos espacios donde 19 compañías y artistas procedentes de África, Latinoamérica y el sur de Europa presentarán propuestas escénicas para todos los públicos.

Nueve agrupaciones internacionales, cinco nacionales y cinco canarias conforman la programación dedicada a las diversas expresiones teatrales esta cita cultural, organizada por el Cabildo de Tenerife, unahoramenos y Circulart. MAPAS mantiene así su vocación transfronteriza con 21 funciones de espectáculos que ofrecerán al público asistente desde textos clásicos a piezas de nueva creación a través de diferentes lenguajes escénicos: gestual, texto o clown.

Las representaciones se iniciarán el miércoles 10 en el Teatro Guimerá con Marie de Jongh (España) que interpretará Amour, reconocido con el MAX 2017 en la categoría de Mejor Espectáculo Infantil o Familiar. Esta obra invita a reflexionar sobre la delgada línea que existe entre la desafección y el amor incondicional. Con una dramaturgia gestual, es una historia de gran carga poética, un canto al encuentro entre diferentes.

El jueves 11 llegará, a La Granja Espacio de Creación, Proyecto Perla (México) con Cosas pequeñas y extraordinarias, un montaje pensado para el público infantil que habla sobre el exilio y la desaparición forzada. De carácter social, aunque dirigido a un público adulto, tendrá lugar posteriormente en ese mismo espacio Murs Murs, la pieza que trae a MAPAS 2019 Ishyo Arts Centre. Esta organización no gubernamental, fundada por ocho mujeres en 2007, trabaja para el desarrollo y la promoción de la cultura en Ruanda a través de sus proyectos.

Una mirada teatral hacia los hechos históricos de Chile es lo que subirá al escenario del Teatro Guimerá Lafamiliateatro. Painecur sigue la línea de trabajo de esta compañía basada en la investigación y rescate de la memoria reciente del país, en este caso, a partir de un controvertido suceso ocurrido en 1960. Un recorrido por la vida política de la España del primer tercio del siglo XX es lo que podrán encontrar de fondo los asistentes a Federico & Salvador. Las horas oscuras y doradas, que ofrecerá en el proscenio capitalino la compañía canaria Insularia Teatro. Interpretada por César Yanes y Leandro González, reconstruye la peculiar amistad que mantuvieron el poeta granadino Federico García Lorca y el pintor catalán Salvador Dalí.

La programación teatral del jueves 11 de julio se completa con Nidos, de Teloncillo Teatro, en el salón de actos del IES Alcalde Bernabé Rodríguez. Con 50 años de trayectoria, esta compañía está especializada en obras para niños, trabajos multidisciplinares donde conviven la poesía, el canto y una cuidada estética.

Vaca 35 Teatro en Grupo vuelve a encontrarse con el público tinerfeño para presentar Lo único que necesita una gran actriz es una gran obra y las ganas de triunfar. Sus espectáculos escénicos, fundamentados en el diálogo con el espectador, no dejan indiferente con propuestas que rompen la barrera que separa al actor del público, a lo teatral de la vida real. Esta pieza se representará en el Espacio singular del Auditorio de Tenerife Adán Martín el jueves 11, viernes 12 y sábado 13 de julio.

El viernes 12 inicia las funciones dedicadas al arte del teatro en La Granja Espacio de Creación con La Elvira. Historia de un emigrante, que pone en escena la compañía canaria Zálatta Teatro. Esta producción pone en actualidad las dificultades de la inmigración ilegal con el relato del sueño de una vida mejor en la otra orilla del Atlántico a bordo de la goleta Elvira. Al espacio escénico del Gobierno de Canarias llegará también el viernes TheRoomToBe, con Burka Teatro. La obra, escrita y dirigida por  Aranza Coello plantea una reflexión sobre la memoria y lo efímero.

El programa del viernes comienza en el Teatro Guimerá con un clásico: La vida es sueño, en versión de Teatro del Temple. La compañía, una de las más veteranas de nuestro país, revisa el texto de Calderón de la Barca con un montaje complejo de estética underground y una versión más contemporánea que explora el choque generacional. El ensayo, la historia de tres mujeres de avanzada edad de una comuna de Medellín, conducirá más tarde al público tinerfeño a un thriller costumbrista de la mano de La congregación teatro (Colombia).

La narrativa, el teatro físico, la comedia y la música en vivo son las herramientas que servirán a Tamsin Clarke para seducir a los asistentes a Manuelita en el IES Alcalde Bernabé Rodríguez el viernes. La pieza, que cuenta la historia de amor, pérdida y revolución de la revolucionaria ecuatoriana que robó el corazón a Simón Bolívar, será interpretada por la compañía venezolana Popelei.

Fin de semana intenso

El sábado 13 será uno de los días más intensos de la programación teatral de MAPAS 2019. Se iniciará en La Granja Espacio de Creación con una obra de ficción y no ficción que coloca al espectador en un momento emocional e intelectual previo al estallido revolucionario. Before the Revolución llega de la mano de los egipcios Temple Independent Theatre Company. Después, los uruguayos Kashmir Productora nos invitarán a cruzar fronteras artísticas y políticas con la pieza Dados tirados, una innovadora reflexión escénica sobre el rock.

El Teatro Guimerá será sede el sábado de la puesta en escena del montaje Proyecto Fausto, de Delirium Teatro, una de la compañías canarias más veteranas. Con un texto comprometido y reflexivo, la obra está protagonizada por ‘las otras víctimas’ de la desaparición en 1968 del pesquero Fausto entre El Hierro y La Palma, las familias de los tres pescadores y el pasajero que iban a bordo. De Argelia llega a ese escenario posteriormente Compagnie La Chouette blanche con una historia también de voces femeninas: Amer, un viaje a través de la memoria interpretado por una sola actriz.

Micomicón Teatro es la compañía elegida para representar en el IES Alcalde Bernabé Rodríguez Una humilde propuesta. Trae a la actualidad el atrevido ensayo satírico de Jonathan Swift, un monólogo que buscará los sentidos del espectador a través del humor y la crítica social.

Un nuevo escenario se sumará a las representaciones de esta jornada, la calle Castillo, donde los transeúntes se sorprenderán por las irreverencias de las Femmes de Hortzmuga Teatroa. Esta compañía apuesta por un espectáculo callejero e itinerante en MAPAS 2109, protagonizado por cuatro ancianas políticamente incorrectas.

El humor,  esta vez protagonizado por el comediante Yiyolo Strattro, despedirá la programación de teatro de MAPAS 2019 la mañana del domingo 14 en el Auditorio de Tenerife. The Comedy Show, un espectáculo para todos los públicos será una oportunidad única de disfrutar de la magia del clown que busca la complicidad del público.

The programme of the 28th Festival Internacional Canarias Jazz & Más Heineken was presented at Auditorio de Tenerife, revealing Maceo Parker as its top of the bill plus 28 other artists who will give more than 50 concerts (from 5th to 21st July) on five of the eight Canary Islands -Tenerife, Gran Canaria, La Palma, Lanzarote and Fuerteventura. The event was attended by Carlos Alonso, president of the Cabildo de Tenerife; Patricia Hernández Gutiérrez, mayor of Santa Cruz de Tenerife; Matilde Zambudio, deputy mayor and councillor for Economic Promotion, Tourism and Trade, Culture and Cultural Geritage of Santa Cruz de Tenerife City Council; Yaiza López, councillor for Culture of La Laguna Town Council; Armando Santana, councillor for Tourism, Trade and Animal Welfare of Arrecife Town Council; Laura Docampo, head of communication of the main sponsor of the festival, Heineken; José Luis Rivero, Island Director for Culture and Education of Cabildo de Tenerife; and Miguel Ramírez, director of the festival / Colorado Producciones.

Excellent male and female voices, the best instrumentalists, emerging ensembles, established musicians, local groups, projects blending styles through fusion, rhythms related to jazz, the African outlook… all these elements make up the bill of the 28th Festival Internacional Canarias Jazz & Más Heineken, featuring Maceo Parker as its main attraction, an icon of modern music whose name immediately brings to mind terms like funk or groove. He is giving three concerts, in Gran Canaria (18 July, Plaza de Santa Ana), Lanzarote (19 de July, Arrecife) and Tenerife (20 de July, Puerto de la Cruz). Parker is one of the 30 artists who are included in the festival, which is held from 5 to 21 July and is taking place on the islands of La Palma, Fuerteventura, Lanzarote, Gran Canaria and Tenerife.

The President of the Cabildo, Carlos Alonso, praised the effort made year after year by “the organisers of a festival that now reaches its 28th year thanks to their effort and excellent work, which is not always easy, in addition to the support of a private brand,”. The President highlighted that the festival is part of “a cultural strategy which includes other types of activities that add value to Tenerife as a cultural destination”.

For his part, the Island Director for Culture of the Cabildo, José Luis Rivero, stressed the participation, “like every year, of nine Canarian musical projects, which have always been high quality” and which have been included every year in the festival programme.

The Festival director, Miguel Ramírez, thanked all the festival sponsors, -“I feel particularly supported today”, he said- in a year which includes “a wide range of styles representing the purest jazz and all those styles which are the result of its own evolution” in an attempt to provide for all kinds of audiences who throughout these years “have become part of our proposal”.

Confirmed musicians this year include a good number of female artists and voices such as Karrin Allyson, Sinne Eeg & Peter Sprague, Judith Hill, Bette Smith, Miryam Latrece Cuarteto, Carita Boronska Quartet or the local ST Fusion, a fact Ramírez pointed out as “something we’ve opted for in the past few years as there are more and more women with increasingly better projects”. He also thanked the support of all the sponsors and invited the audience to “find out all the good things this year’s programme has in store for them”.

Santa Cruz de Tenerife mayor, Patricia Hernández, pointed out “the decision to include a large number of women in the programme, famous women who, besides Maceo Parker, have forged their careers and will be a model for Santa Cruz women and girls. We will continue to support this type of festivals, we’re involved in encouraging this type of cultural activities and this is what our councillor, Matilde Zambudio, is working on with the support of all the municipal government.

Yaiza López, councillor for Culture of La Laguna, highlighted that “our municipality and our Teatro Leal are still some of the chosen venues for this festival, which has a loyal audience as its nearly 30 years of existence confirm”.

Armando Santana, councillor for Culture of Arrecife, valued very positively the inclusion of a concert by Maceo Parker in Lanzarote’s capital “in the same year we’re celebrating the birth of César Manrique, right in Plaza del Almacén, very much a Manrique are in the heart of town”.

Laura Docampo, on behalf of the main private sponsor of the festival -Heineken- recalled that “this is Heineken’s longest sponsorship in Spain as it’s been kept for 26 years in a row; a very positive sign for a festival that has brought us out of our comfort zone”.

Other musicians present include Avishai Cohen Trio, Tony DeSare, Marquis Hill Blacktet, FNF Trio led by Ferenc Nemeth featuring Lionel Loueke and Chris Cheek, Kennedy Administration, Munir Hossn Quartet, Yuri Honing Acoustic Quartet, Joel Ross, Mamas Gun… and many local bands, like ST Fusion or Barreiro Project.

Creator and dancer Teresa Lorenzo is performing at 9:00 pm on Thursday, the 4th at Sala de Cámara del Teatro Leal de La Laguna. The show, Claros del bosque, marks the end of the artist’s residency at Laboratorio de Artes Vivas Tenerife LAV of Cabildo de Tenerife, which started on 10 June. Admission is free.

Apart from the staging, the contemporary dance teacher and higher audio-visual technician took part in the Tenerife LAV Encuentros scheme on the outskirts of town in which the guest artist shares work tools, processes and points of views with different groups.

Teresa Lorenzo worked with Metamorfosis, the performing arts group of the Sociedad Insular para la Promoción con Discapacidad (Sinpromi), made up by people who have been diagnosed with serious mental health disorders, which is coordinated by Beatriz Bello.

To work in Claros del bosque Teresa Lorenzo starts from the idea that “the magic gift of the body is stated by the power of its presence”. “This faculty could perhaps be considered to be inborn or learnt from its own nature; if it is learnt, we can conclude, from a magic thinking stance, that it speaks the same language”, the Canarian creator reflects.

The approach for these sessions starts in Orpheus’s singing to address what came first, where everything has its roots, which in this case is sheer shamanism. According to the myth, it is a slow, relaxing chant which apparently, has very little or nothing to do with the usual music played by magicians and shamans of other cultures, where percussion prevails.

His chant has hypnotic powers whose aim is to soothe the spirit, something related to one of the basic principles of magic.  We are referring to imitative or sympathetic magic, which is based on the metaphysical belief that like acts on like, hence Orpheus’s purifying music or the harmonized body of a performer, via the process of imitative magic, would calm down the souls or the moods of those who are listening to his chant or looking at her movement and stillness.

Dance is one of the major artforms in the programme of Mercado de las Artes Performativas del Atlántico Sur, MAPAS 2019, to be held from 10 to 14 July. A total of 11 shows will bring to the audience, in an open and participative way, the proposals created in six countries in Africa, Latin America and southern Europe.

The piece was created by Lava’s artistic director Daniel Abreu and in it, six dancers bring to life a deep and pure geography of water set in the midst of sediments, air, shadows, calmness, unimaginable fauna –a place that is impossible to inhabit.

The proposals Be Yours Be Mine and Serenity Suite, by Natalia Medina Compañía de Danza and Cía.Matxalen Bilbao, respectively, will fill Auditorio de Tenerife’s Sala Castillo with expression and emotion on 11 July.

The story takes Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet to the city of New York, where two young lovers are trapped by the conflicts of two street gangs, the Americans Jet and the Puerto Ricans Shark.

Griffith and Harold Prince, premiered on 26 September 1957 at the Winter Garden Theatre in New York, where it was performed 1000 times. Both in New York and London, the musical has been produced again twice (on Broadway in 1980 and 2009 and at the West End in 1997 and 2008), adding one more Tony Award for Best Revival of a Musical; a Drama Desk Award, a Theatre World Award and even a Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album. West Side Story has been put on in more than 30 countries.

The film was premiered in 1961, starring Natalie Wood, Richard Beymer, Rita Moreno, George Chakiris and Russ Tamblyn. It was nominated to 11 Oscar awards and took 10, including one for Best Film. It is the fourth film to have won more academy awards. It also got 5 nominations to the Golden Globe and won three.

Tenerife is hosting the third Mercado de las Artes Performativas del Atlántico Sur [South Atlantic Performing Arts Market], MAPAS 2019 from 10 to 14 July. The event has become an international hotspot for the performing arts and music created in Africa, Latin America and southern Europe. Artists and heads of programming from all over the world are joining us again this year.

This festival of culture and live arts was presented today at a press conference by the President of the Cabildo, Carlos Alonso; the Island Director for Culture and Education, José Luis Rivero; the acting local Minister for Culture of the Government of the Canary Islands, Aurelio González; the first Deputy Mayor of Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Matilde Zambudio; the Director of Circulart, Octavio Arbeláez; and the Director of unahoramenos, Mario Vega.

Alonso highlighted “three things” about MAPAS. On the one hand, “the audiences, who from the very start welcomed the event and have grown with time; they have guaranteed the continuity of the market through their encouraging presence.”. Secondly, “it positions the island’s productions in the world arena, in an open, global, and diverse environment”. And finally, he praised the growth of the market which has led to management agencies joining it for the first time this year, “as an important feature to add power to MAPAS”, in addition to the increase of the “number of participants from other regions”.

José Luis Rivero underlined that MAPAS “is now established as a platform of the Canarian performing arts in the world as well as a platform of the world’s performing arts that takes place in the Canary Islands”. “The tricontinental confluence comes true in Tenerife”, he added. He also explained that the investment return last year was quite good as it was around 5 million euros, averaging more than 1,000 euros per visitor and 300 euros per Canarian resident.

Unahoramenos manager, Mario Vega, revealed the details of MAPAS programme to take place for five days in different venues in Santa Cruz. He pointed out that special relevance has been given to “sustainability and practices that generate the least environmental impact possible in the city”.

Octavio Arbeláez highlighted that “Tenerife is a privileged meeting point” to stage MAPAS, which is a project that “shows to the world that we create from diversity”. This third year is “very special”, he added, because it looks into network working, into the strategies of collaborative work.

Matilde Zambudio was happy to have Santa Cruz de Tenerife as “the common ground for MAPAS, whose third year provides a new opportunity to move ahead toward international cultural markets”. The acting local Minister for Culture of the Government of the Canary Islands, Aurelio González, stated that “MAPAS is a project that focuses on creativity” and we need “motivating meetings that contribute to encourage it”.

The figures of MAPAS 2019, organised by the Cabildo de Tenerife, unahoramenos y Circulart are again, very good and show high rate of participation: 138 art and music groups from 27 countries, 30 management agencies and 149 heads of programming and cultural managers of 40 different nations.

This professional market includes business meetings, academic activities, international institutional meetings and artistic shows open to the public. For five days, it will take up the main artistic venues in Santa Cruz to display a full programme that highlights the articulation of cooperation networks and joint work.

The performances and showcases are available on the website and on the free app that can be downloaded for IOS and Android mobiles. You can see all the information on MAPAS shows and talks and get all the news relevant to the audience and the Market participants.

The 138 artistic groups and the 30 management agencies can meet the nearly 150 programmers and cultural managers to find business and distribution opportunities for their shows and reach collaboration agreements. The fast business meetings will be held at TEA Tenerife Espacio de las Artes on Friday, the 12th and Saturday, the 13th July from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm. In these brief meetings, 12 minutes long, artists will have the chance to show their creations to heads of programming from 40 countries. Last year, some 3,500 professional meetings were held leading to many later agreements.

Also, a total of 58 artists and groups from 23 countries will have the chance to exhibit their professional work before the audience and the programmers in the artistic showcases to take place during the five days of the market. There are thirty performing arts shows (6 from Africa, 7 from Latin America, 9 from the Canaries, and 8 from other regions in Spain) and 28 are music performances (11 from Africa, 10 from Latin America, 5 from the Canaries and 2 from the rest of Spain). More than fifty artists and management agencies from the Canary Islands are taking part in MAPAS 2019, 14 of which are also showcasing their work.

TEA Tenerife Espacio de las Artes, Auditorio de Tenerife and grounds, La Granja Espacio de Creación, Teatro Guimerá, IES Alcalde Bernabé and Museo de la Naturaleza y la Arqueología (MUNA) are the venues for the business meetings, lectures, meetings, talks, round tables and theatre, dance, circus and music performances from the three continents.

A dance premiere for the opening show

The opening show this year will be by Lava -Auditorio de Tenerife dance company- whose artistic director, Daniel Abreu, has created and directed Abisal, a 60-minute piece to be premiered on Wednesday, 10 July at 8:00 pm in Auditorio de Tenerife’s Sala Sinfónica.

In the show, six dancers bring to life a deep and pure geography of water set in the midst of sediments, air, shadows, calmness, unimaginable fauna –a place that is impossible to inhabit. Daniel Abreu explains in his description of the piece that “love moves the world and every action of the six dancers goes towards it. I can only look at dance lovingly…in my imagination it leads me to the blue of the depths, to beautiful creatures and vast obsidian sediments or any other volcanic remains”.

MAPAS will honour its 2019 Cartógrafo Ilustre [Illustrious Cartographer], a distinction to be delivered to Hassane Kouyaté (Burkina Faso, 1964), griot, actor, percussionist, stage director and one of the great ambassadors of African culture who has shown that the distance imposed by oceans and borders means nothing when it comes to sharing art. He both has solid training and a wide-ranging register which have led him to a long prestigious career. Kouyaté has been key in making cultural geographical charts. The creative, socially committed shows of this figure of the performing arts has thrilled audiences of Burkina Faso, the Ivory Coast, Niger, Mali, Senegal, Togo, Guinea, The Congo, Morocco, Argelia, Tunisia, Venezuela, Mexico, Brazil, Island of Réunion, Canada, the United States, Switzerland, France, Belgium, Spain, Austria, Germany and Cuba.

MAPAS will also have a wide professional and academic schedule including lectures by Sylvie Durán, minister of Culture and Youth of Costa Rica, who will talk about network working; and Daniela Bosé, a teacher and professional who will give us her view on the role of women in the music industry. At MAPAS there will be interesting debates on the advantages of cooperation in the cultural sphere and the performance of women in Latin American performing arts.

Debate de gallos

One of the highlighted round tables will be “Debate de gallos” [Cockdebate], a meeting of artists and social activists Serge Smockey Bambara and Henry Arteaga, known as El Jke, with journalist Nicolás Castellano as moderator.  Also, they are both performing on Saturday, 13 July. Bambara is a member of Smockey & The Agama Band, a rap band from Burkina Faso whose lyrics are politically and socially committed. He is also one of the creators of the social movement citizen’s broom, which was committed to the fall of dictator Blaise Compaore. Henry Arteaga El Jke is from the Colombian Crew Peligrosos, an artistic proposal that has given them a loyal audience thanks to their professional way of dealing with the stage. They are also known for their proposals of social construction from art.

For his part, the Cabildo de Tenerife’s Island Director for Culture, José Luis Rivero, will talk about the model of Tenerife in terms of the performing arts and music as well as about the challenges and opportunities for companies. His is one of the eight talks available during the market that deal with issues of interest for artists, heads of programming and cultural managers.

MAPAS, platform of international connections

In its third year, MAPAS is now established as a great forum of international scope for the cultural and creative industries and an international meeting point of live arts. In this context, the Encuentro de Redes [Networks Meeting], has been organised. It is bringing to Tenerife representatives of institutions and organisations that promote music and the performing arts worldwide.

Different associations and organisations related to the live arts business worldwide, such as Asociación para el Desarrollo de la Industria de la Música Iberoamericana (ADIMI), Global Music Market Network (GLOMNET) Secretaría General Iberoamericana (SEGIB), Red Eurolatinoamericana de Artes Escénicas (REDELAE) or Red de Teatros y Auditorios de España (REDESCENA) or Satélite Lat Mujeres de la Industria de la Música Latinoamericana, among others, will take part in Encuentro de Redes [Networks Meeting] to work towards the strengthening of the culture of internationalization of the artistic proposals and making creative industries solid through proposals based on innovation and consensus.

In this framework, where the networks of collaborative work are deeply looked into, a meeting of the Red Eurolatinoamericana de Artes Escénicas (REDELAE) will be held too. The Canary Islands will be represented by the Canarian Association of Performing Arts Companies Réplica, and Pie de base, the Canarian association of movement artists. Both organizations will make the most of the conditions offered by MAPAS to hold their respective members meeting and make contacts with agents who may be interested in joining them.

Ópera de Tenerife presenta el último título de la temporada lírica: El Gato Montés, de Manuel Penella, que tendrá una sola representación mañana sábado [día 29] a las 19:30 horas en la Sala Sinfónica del Auditorio de Tenerife y para el que las entradas ya están agotadas. La magistral composición que narra el apasionante triángulo amoroso en una Andalucía de profundidad lorquiana estará bajo la dirección de Salvador Vázquez, que hace su debut en la ópera tinerfeña.

El director insular de Cultura, José Luis Rivero, comentó que “el lleno absoluto de esta función también responde al impulso en los abonos de Ópera de Tenerife, que ya hemos aumentado en un 45 por ciento”. “Esto demuestra que la ópera, el lenguaje musical escénico más completo, está más presente, viva y abierta que nunca”, explicó el director insular, quien afirmó que “el público está respondiendo a nuestros proyectos de Ópera de Tenerife”.

Para el director de escena, Raúl Vázquez, “es un sueño que un debutante como yo pueda llevar a escena con un equipo así una obra maestra como ésta y también es un honor y un privilegio, pero sobre todo un reto”. “Ojalá todas las casa de ópera valorasen las ideas como lo hace Ópera de Tenerife, dando oportunidades a gente nueva”, deseó el joven maestro, en cuya visión escénica se ha alejado de los tópicos buscando “espacios emocionales, más que físicos”.

Salvador Vázquez se colocará por primera vez al frente de la Sinfónica de Tenerife para este título. “Estaré eternamente agradecido a Ópera de Tenerife por esta oportunidad”, reconoció el director musical malagueño, quien lleva trabajando en el Auditorio de Tenerife un mes, en el que “he crecido muchísimo con estos grandes artistas: tienen una gran joya”. “Esta ópera española tiene referencias continuas a la música andaluza y se pueden reconocer saetas, seguidillas y sevillanas, entre otros”, analizó el maestro.

Mariola Cantarelo, con 20 años de carrera a sus espaldas, confiesa que “en Tenerife estoy en casa, me siendo parte de esta familia, donde todo se vive de forma muy intensa”. La soprano española cuenta que “todo el elenco nos llevamos muy bien y esa complicidad se nota en el escenario, donde nos dejamos el alma en cada función”. “Este papel es un regalo y que una andaluza cante el rol Soleá le puede aportar ese duende que necesita y que yo trato de darle”, reflexiona la cantante, quien comparte que “hemos trabajado mucho en un acento andaluz cerrado”.

El tenor Gillen Munguía empezó su carrera como cantante en esta isla dentro de Opera (e) Studio “y eso me ha abierto muchas puertas y ahora debuto con grandes artistas a los que siempre he admirado, como Luis Cansino, con cuya interpretación me enamoré de la lírica hace años”. “Siempre llevaré a Tenerife en mi corazón”, sentenció el joven cantante que interpreta a Rafael Ruiz.

Para Luis Cansino “la cultura es la base de todo en nuestra sociedad”. Este barítono que cumple 32 años de carrera explica que “aquí hay excelentes personas y al final eso es lo más importante”. “Doy las gracias a Ópera de Tenerife por lo que están haciendo, convirtiendo a esta isla en un faro en la lírica de este país”, sostuvo el cantante, que interpreta al personaje que da nombre a este título: Juanillo el Gato Montés.

El argumento de esta ópera popular en tres actos, con libreto del mismo Manuel Penella Moreno (Valencia, 1880 – Cuernavaca, México 1939), inspirada durante un viaje del compositor por tierras andaluzas y estrenada en el Teatro Principal de Valencia el 23 de febrero de 1916, narra la rivalidad entre el torero Rafael Ruiz, el Macareno, y el bandolero Juanillo, conocido como el Gato Montés, por el querer de una gitana, Soleá. Obra maestra del género, considerada el máximo exponente de las melodías populares líricas españoles de la época, contiene el famoso pasodoble ‘Torero quiero ser’, donde se recogen todos los tópicos del españolismo con fuertes tintes del andalucismo mágico.

La propuesta de Ópera de Tenerife cuenta con las voces de Mariola Cantarero [Soleá]; Sandra Ferrández [Gitana]; Marina Pardo [Frasquita]; Tairuma Méndez [Loliya]; Luis Cansino [Juanillo, el Gato Montés]; Gillen Munguía [Rafael Ruiz, el Macareno]; Alberto Camón [Padre Antón]; Axier Sánchez [Hormigón]; Borja Molina [Caireles y Pezuño]; Néstor Suárez [Recalcao]; Galilea Arias [Pastorcillo]; Joniker Brito [Vendedor] y Juan Carlos Afonso [Alguacilillo].

La propuesta de escenografía de Carlos Santos nos plantea la opresión del mundo en el que se ve envuelta Soleá. De esta manera, se verá una gran caja cerrada, representando el mundo masculino de Rafael, encorsetando a la figura femenina de la protagonista, representado por un gran giratorio central. En este espacio único, de lugar y tiempo “indeterminado”, aparecerán elementos fuera de escala, como el gran portón central, que ejercerá de vía de entrada y salida  a este mundo interior, por donde accederán los personajes y elementos que interfieren en la protagonista, o elementos icónicos que nos trasladarán de un acto a otro según el transcurso de la obra.

A través del vestuario, con la firma de Massimo Carlotto, se ha buscado líneas mucho más depuradas y estilizadas para no caer en los tópicos andaluces sin perder la esencia de las características del folclore regional. Un punto de partida que tiene como inspiración la singular visión, sensual y fatalista del pintor Julio Romero de Torres.

La Sala de Cámara de Auditorio de Tenerife acoge el jueves [día 27] a las 20:00 horas un concierto muy especial: la Escuela Coral de Tenerife celebra la clausura de su segunda temporada, en la que niños, jóvenes y adultos han participado con dos clases semanales entre los meses de octubre y junio. La entrada es libre hasta completar aforo.

Esta cita, en la que también participará el Coro Juvenil de Auditorio de Tenerife, servirá para poner a prueba el aprendizaje en canto, interpretación y percusión corporal que los casi cien alumnos han adquirido a lo largo del presente curso, impulsado nuevamente por el Cabildo Insular que, además, asumió su compromiso con esta formación con la inauguración de nuevas salas dedicadas íntegramente al ejercicio de la actividad coral en el Auditorio.

En el concierto, que tendrá una duración aproximada de noventa minutos, se abordará un repertorio contemporáneo, con algunas piezas de góspel, música sacra y música popular de diferentes regiones y países. Será un repertorio marcado también por el paso  por la Escuela de directores de renombre nacional e internacional, como Josu Elberdin, Basilio Astulez, Pedro Teixeira, Juan Manuel Brarda, Vanina Fernández y Esteban Conde; que han ofrecido actividades especiales, contribuyendo a reforzar el aprendizaje en áreas como la interpretación, la técnica vocal o la expresión corporal.

Para Roxana Schmunk, directora de la Escuela, este segundo curso ha servido para “afianzar el proyecto”, que ha crecido en componentes tanto en el grupo infantil como en el prejuvenil, con la gran sorpresa en cuanto a acogida del nuevo coro adulto, que reúne dos tardes en semana a más de cincuenta personas, demostrando que existe una inquietud por aprender música en este grupo de edad.

“La educación en música es una gran olvidada en nuestra sociedad y estamos muy orgullosos de poder ofrecer esta formación, que abre a las personas la posibilidad de introducirse en el mundo musical, con todos los beneficios  que ello conlleva, de manera gratuita”, explica Schmunk, quien concluye afirmando que “cantar en coro nos ayuda a canalizar nuestras emociones y a expresarnos de manera mucho más creativa”.

La Escuela Coral de Tenerife prepara ya su tercer curso, con fecha de arranque en el próximo mes de octubre y en el que se impulsará como novedad el grupo joven, una oportunidad para formar nuevos miembros para el Coro Juvenil de Auditorio de Tenerife; metido de lleno tras solo tres años de existencia en concursos internacionales de gran nivel.

En el mes de septiembre se repetirá convocatoria de inscripciones, con el precedente de la realizada en este mismo mes de junio, en la que el grupo adulto ha duplicado su número de participantes.

La actividad de la Escuela también continuará en verano, con el Campamento Coral de Tenerife que se desarrollará del 1 al 5 de julio y que también ofrecerá un concierto final el 5 de julio en el Salón de Actos del IES La Laboral de La Laguna.

At 8:00 pm on Thursday the 27th Auditorio de Tenerife’s Sala de Cámara is hosting a very special concert: Escuela Coral de Tenerife’s closing event. In the school’s second season, kids, youths and adults have attended two classes per week from October to June. Admission to the event is free.

The show, also featuring Coro Juvenil de Auditorio de Tenerife [Auditorio de Tenerife Young Choir], will test what the nearly one hundred students have learned about singing, interpretation and body percussion during the year. The course is promoted by the Island’s Cabildo that has also shown its commitment to this training by opening new rooms exclusively dedicated to choral singing at Auditorio.

The concert will last for approximately ninety minutes and it will include contemporary repertoire with some gospel, sacred, and popular music from different regions and countries. This repertoire is also marked by the visits of conductors of national and international renown like Josu Elberdin, Basilio Astulez, Pedro Teixeira, Juan Manuel Brarda, Vanina Fernández and Esteban Conde; these professionals have offered special activities, thus contributing to reinforce the learning of areas like interpretation, voice technique and body language.

In the point of view of school director Roxana Schmunk, in this second year the “project has been reinforced”, the number of members in the children and pre-juvenile groups has grown plus the new adult choir has had an amazingly good reception. More than fifty people get together twice a week, proof of how eager people in this age group are to learn music.

“Education in music has traditionally been neglected in our community and we are proud to offer this training, which opens the door to the chance of getting involved in the world of music and all the benefits it entails, at no cost”, Schmunk explains to then conclude by saying “singing in a choir helps us to channel our emotions and express ourselves more creatively”.

The Escuela Coral de Tenerife is now preparing its third course which is to start next October. As a novelty, it will be including a young group, a chance to train new future members of the Coro Juvenil de Auditorio de Tenerife, which is fully immersed in top-level international competitions despite being just three years old.

A new application period will be available in September, after the call held this June, in which the adult group doubled its number of participants.

The activity of the Escuela continues in the summer with the Tenerife Choral Camp taking place from 1 to 5 July, which also includes a concert at the end of the camp, on 5 July at Salón de Actos of IES La Laboral de La Laguna.
