This Wednesday at the Chamber Hall, the music disseminator will expound what is to come in the 2024-2025 season.

 

The Auditorio de Tenerife renews its collaboration with Ramón Gener for the 2024-2025 season with five educational talks. The first date with the cultural populariser will be this Wednesday (10 July) at 7:30 p.m. in the Chamber Hall, presenting the operas that make up the programme for the next season, entitled Tu lugar en la ópera (Your place at the Opera).

For these presentations, where Gener enriches his explanations with live piano accompaniment, tickets for the general public are priced at 8 euros and 5 euros for those under 30. However, opera subscription holders receive a 50% discount, reducing the cost to 4 euros. After the lecture, there will be a stand in the Hall with Genere's first novel, Historia de un piano (History of a Piano), and the winner of the Ramon Lull Prize himself will sign his work.

The following lecture, for which tickets are already available, takes place on 3 October, explaining Ariadne auf Naxos by Richard Strauss, the first subscription opera of the season. On 5 and 20 November, the writer and singer will return to the island to delve into Giacomo Puccini's Madama Butterfly and Alberto Carretero's La Bella Susona, respectively. Gener's last lecture about Giuseppe Verdi's Giovanna d'Arco takes place on 14 March 2025.

Born in Barcelona, Ramón Gener holds a humanities and business studies degree. When he was six, he began his studies as a musician at the Higher Conservatoire of Music of the Liceu. After a career lasting several years as a baritone, he started a new phase as a musical educator, offering conferences about opera, classical music and art, which have taken him to radio and television, even internationally. He has published four books: Si Beethoven pudiera escucharme (2013), El amor te hará inmortal (2016), Beethoven, un músico sobre un mar de nubes (2020) and Historia de un piano (2024).

The tickets are available on the website www.auditoriodetenerife.com, at the auditorium's box office or by dialling the phone number 902 317 327 from Monday to Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. There are discounts for students, unemployed and large families.
