Berklee a Les Arts: Queens

"Queens" is the title of a new multidisciplinary work created by Berklee Valencia students, faculty, and staff, that explores themes from the opera Maria Stuarda (Mary Stuart) by Gaetano Donizetti. 

This show is conceived as a tribute to outstanding musical personalities from the U.K. music scene, as well as a reflection on competitive behavior and rivalry within the music industry. 

The confrontation between Mary Stuart (Mary I of Scotland) and Elizabeth I (Queen of England) is woven through the lyrics and music of Sade, Kate Bush, Laura Mvula, Sinead O’Connor, Lianne La Havas, Amy Winehouse, and Adele, to name a few. Through their lives we contemplate on the weight that a crown can carry.

Tickets are already available at Les Arts website.

Berklee a Les Arts is a collaboration between Palau de les Arts and Berklee College of Music that offers the audience new meeting points for music and other artistic disciplines related to the pieces performed at Les Arts.
