The Teatro de la Maestranza engages the interest of the most expert and music-loving audience anew: the premiere of Die Walküre and a revival of one of its most successful productions, The Marriage of Figaro.

We begin an ambitious journey: Wagner’s Ring cycle. Das Rheingold is a celebration of the maturity and artistic excellence of the Maestranza. More than an artistic project, the Tetralogy is an intellectual and cultural obligation which we undertake with conviction, in an exceptional setting: the 20th Anniversary of the theatre and the Royal Seville Symphony Orchestra (ROSS).

The Maestranza continues a trajectory which defines its personality and makes the theatre a frame of reference. During this season there is a focus on opera titles which have never been heard before in Spain such as Die schweigsame Frau (The Silent Woman) by Richard Strauss.

Having completed the expansion, renovations and technical modernization of the scenic space, the season marks the beginning of a new era where it is possible to perform operas, concerts and other shows almost simultaneously. Opera and symphonic music are the backbone of a wide and diverse programming.

The leitmotif of this season centres on heroes, myths and legends. The premieres in Spain of two operas by composer Alexander von Zemlinsky: Eine Florentinische Tragödie, (A Florentine Tragedy) and Der Zwerg, (The Dwarf) places the Seville theatre high on the list once again.
