The Malta Summer Festival Is Giving You The Chance To Experience Opera In A New Way
The Malta Philharmonic Orchestra (MPO) launches Malta Summer Festival which seeks to present opera in an innovative manner.
Under the artistic direction of Óliver Díaz, The Malta Summer Festival is all about helping younger audiences fall back in love with the ins and outs of opera. Presenting a celebration of music, lights, projections and history, audiences are in for a spectacular time.
Vittorio Grigolo is one of the many stars who will be taking the audience on a musical journey across some of the most significant repertoires.
Owen Bonnici, the Minister for the National Heritage, the Arts, and the Local Government states that “This program continues to demonstrate our commitment as a Government to continue working for the music and culture; the main aim will remain to foster in people’s lives a music appreciation.”
Minister Bonnici said that this programme will see the participation of artists as well as a variety of events, where people will be part of this programme.
“Apart from the appetite for travel, there is also a desire for more outdoor and public activities after two years of continuous restrictions. In these two years we have worked hard to assure that when our country is open in its entirety, we have a diversified cultural calendar. For this summer we have a busy entertainment calendar that will provide both tourists and Maltese with the opportunity to enjoy their quality time with activities such as the Malta Summer Festival,” continued Minister for Tourism Clayton Bartolo.
During the official launch, the Malta Philharmonic Orchestra CEO Sigmund Mifsud speaks about how this step will help the orchestra and our country as a whole move forward. Building on last year’s Grand Finale, the Malta Philharmonic Orchestra has had a helping hand during the Malta Summer Festival.
“We always believed in the importance of organising a festival like this, as it offers an opportunity for networking while setting the objectives of musical growth, both for the orchestra and also for the local cultural ecology,” said Sigmund Mifsud.
Kicking off on 13th July and running until 21st July, the Malta Summer Festival is presented by the Malta Philharmonic Orchestra in collaboration with the Arts Council Malta and the Malta Tourism Authority.
This is done with the support of Hilton Malta, the Ministry for Gozo, and the Ministry for the National Heritage, the Arts, and the Local Government. All information on the festival can be found on maltaorchestra.com/malta-summer-festival/.
