Note From Plácido

Placido Domingo"Welcome to the first edition of my festival. I am thrilled that such wonderful and highly accomplished guest artists will join me for this exciting series of opera and concert performances. These will be my first performances in the culturally rich and historically important cities of Seville and Malaga in a number of years, and I am hugely excited at the prospect of returning there, as well as establishing my own festival in my beloved homeland. I hope the festival will bring attention to Andalucía, a beautiful and evocative region of Spain that has played such an important part in operatic storytelling. And I hope you will enjoy it too." - Plácido Domingo
