On the occasion of the performances of Antonín Dvořák’s Rusalka at the Gran Teatre del Liceu this June and July, we invite you to explore this fascinating opera through a lecture by Rosa Fernández, Professor of Music and member of the Royal Academies of Madrid and Barcelona.
In this session, Fernández will guide us through the symbolic and musical universe of this masterpiece of the Slavic repertoire, known for its lyrical atmosphere, the iconic “Song to the Moon”, and the staging of a story filled with mystery and emotion. She will also examine the stage direction by Christof Loy, who offers a fresh perspective on this opera of fairytale beauty and tragic destiny.
The lecture is open to all and is part of the Liceu’s outreach activities aimed at bringing audiences closer to the heart of the opera.
The session will later be available on the YouTube channel of Els Amics del Liceu.
Professor of Music and full member of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of San Fernando (Madrid) and the Royal Catalan Academy of Fine Arts of Sant Jordi (Barcelona), Rosa Fernández is a distinguished musicologist specializing in 19th- and 20th-century European music history. With a nationally and internationally acclaimed academic career, she has devoted much of her research to the study of musical language, opera reception, and the interplay between music, literature, and the performing arts.
She has taught at various universities and higher education institutions, and is the author of numerous publications, essays, and articles in specialized journals. She collaborates regularly with theatres, festivals, and media outlets, offering lectures and outreach activities aimed at bringing the great musical repertoire closer to the general public.
