René Pape & Orquestra Simfònica del Vallès

René Pape arrives at the Palau de la Música Catalana with a programme conceived almost to measure his career: the best of Verdi and Wagner for bass voice. The German singer, one of the great current interpreters of this repertoire, brings together some of the characters that have cemented his international reputation, from Fiesco, Banquo and Philip II to Hans Sachs, Marke and Wotan. A gallery of great roles that will allow listening to the depth, authority and dramatic power of one of the most recognised bass voices in the operatic landscape. The programme alternates these great vocal moments with orchestral pages from Nabucco, Aida, La forza del destino, Lohengrin and Tristan und Isolde, in a balanced tour through the universes of Verdi and Wagner. Alongside the Orquestra Simfònica del Vallès, Pape also resumes the Wagnerian thread that this summer brought to the Palau with the Bayreuth Festival Orchestra, but now expands it with the other great territory of his career: Verdi. Two giants of opera and an exceptionally linked voice to both.
