Lyrical Gala with Pretty Yende and Xabier Anduaga

If there is one outstanding fact in the history of our theater over its 178 years of existence, it is the love for the best voices. Two internationally recognized voices, beloved at the Liceu, such as Pretty Yende and Xabier Anduaga, will offer a recital together for the first time.

Pretty Yende debuted at the Liceu in the tribute for the 50th anniversary of Montserrat Caballé's debut at the Liceu in January 2012, and has returned several times, always with great success and leaving a lasting impression on the audience. We cannot forget her delightful Norina in Don Pasquale or her delicate Elvira in I puritani.

Xabier Anduaga is one of the most sought-after tenors of our time. He first gained recognition at the 2017 Viñas competition, where he won an official prize, and since his debut as Ernesto in Don Pasquale at the Liceu in the 2022-2023 season, he has carved out a special place among the Liceu audience.

The two voices come together to offer a recital centered around their repertoire, based on 19th-century Italian bel canto, in which they are reference figures. They will be accompanied by pianist Vanessa Garcia Diepa, who has a distinguished international career, performing recitals alongside the great voices of our time.
