The Symphony Orchestra will play Lorin Maazel’s adaptation of Wagner, 'The Ring Without Words'

The Tenerife Symphony Orchestra returns to the Canary Islands’ International Music Festival (FIMC) to play Lorin Maazel’s version of Wagner’s "Der Ring des Nibelungen", "The Ring Without Words", on Thursday 16th at 20:00 in the Auditorio de Tenerife. Tickets are on sale from € 50.

In the 1980s, maestro Lorin Maazel met the challenge of converting Wagner’s fifteen-hour-long operatic trilogy into a symphonic work of just over an hour. This was how "The Ring Without Words” was born, the famous director’s adaptation of Wagner’s piece, which shall be played at the FIMC by the Tenerife Symphony Orchestra. Over a hundred musicians will perform under the baton of their conductor, Antonio Méndez. This is a very special programme with which the FIMC wants to pay homage to the Tenerife group, which celebrates its 50th anniversary as a Symphony Orchestra.
