Gaulitana: A Festival of Music
Description:
“Gozo’s main classical music festival” returns, this year focusing on the theme “Women in Society”. Gaulitana will present an eclectic mix of events in multifarious styles – orchestral, chamber, recitals, vocal, featuring international and local artists and ensembles. Held in various locations around Gozo (with some events in Malta), the festival incorporates multiple creative arts, from literature, to acting, cinema and live-painting, whilst presenting multiple genres (jazz, pop, musicals and folk music). The festival concludes with the OPERA+ Weekend (5-7 April), three days of cultural bonanza highlighted by the production of Puccini’s Manon Lescaut. The opera returns to the Maltese stage after an absence of 20 years, starring Miriam Gauci – Gaulitana’s Honorary Patron - in the title role. It will also host an exhibition on Giacomo Puccini, an art exhibition by 30 Chinese female artists whilst commemorating the bi-centenary since the birth of Clara Schumann with Artist-in-Residence Alexander Frey. This unmissable feast of the arts, includes its Espresso Series in the historic Cittadella, the TALK re u series – ushering in key events in the upcoming week – and the MusicAlive series, aiming to present live music to a wider audience. Gaulitana: “a festival absolutely deserving a visit” (OperaClick portal) Gaulitana is supported by the Gozo Cultural Support Programme of Arts Council Malta in collaboration with the Ministry for Gozo.
