Chirping cicadas, vivacious castanets in fandango rhythm and a gentle, warm Mediterranean breeze – all this can be heard in Georges Bizet’s two »L’Arlésienne« suites. As he had already done in his opera »Carmen«, the French composer experimented in these famous suites with Spanish colouring – even though he had never actually been to the country of his longings.

For the Real Orquesta Sinfónica de Sevilla, these sounds and rhythms are a true home game. And when guitar legend Pepe Romero, who celebrates his 75th birthday tonight – contributes two original Spanish repertoire classics to the programme, the concert trip to Andalusia is completed to perfection!
