Cascais Ópera apresenta Concerto Solidário de Verão no Auditório Senhora da Boa Nova

highlight

No próximo dia 27 de julho, às 21h00, o Auditório Senhora da Boa Nova, em Cascais, acolhe um Concerto de Verão solidário, promovido pelo Cascais Ópera, numa celebração da excelência vocal, da juventude artística e do compromisso com a comunidade.

O recital conta com a participação das sopranos Ana Rita Coelho, vencedora do Grand Prix Égide 2025 e do Prémio do Público RTP, e Sílvia Sequeira, laureada com o Primeiro Prémio Teresa Berganza 2024 e também distinguida com o Prémio do Público RTP. As intérpretes estarão acompanhadas pela Macau Youth Symphony Orchestra e pela Orquestra da Escola de Música do Colégio Moderno, sob a direção do maestro Leung Kin-Fung.

O programa propõe uma viagem emocionante por grandes árias da ópera de compositores como Verdi, Puccini, Wagner, Mozart, Bizet, Mascagni e Offenbach, num repertório vibrante pensado para todos os públicos.

Um dos momentos altos da noite será a segunda apresentação mundial de uma obra da compositora macaense Bun-Ching Lam, com a presença da autora. A peça, inicialmente estreada no Festival de Música de Mafra “Filipe de Sousa”, será interpretada pela solista Jia Lei num Sheng, instrumento de sopro tradicional chinês, oferecendo uma fusão rara entre a tradição musical oriental e a linguagem da música clássica ocidental.

Este concerto tem também uma forte componente solidária: a bilheteira, com valor simbólico de 10 euros, reverterá na totalidade para as associações Gaivotas da Torre e Centro Paroquial do Estoril. Os bilhetes podem ser adquiridos em Bol.pt. Ambas as instituições desenvolvem um trabalho essencial no apoio social, educativo e comunitário junto da população de Cascais, e são parceiras do programa de sustentabilidade e inclusão do Cascais Ópera – Concurso Internacional de Canto.

Com o apoio da Fundação Oriente e da Fundação Stanley Ho, este espetáculo reúne cerca de 100 artistas em palco, promovendo o encontro entre culturas, gerações e causas sociais, através da música.

OUTROS ARTIGOS

Over the past three decades, primarily in London, Portugal and Amsterdam, Dr Jorge Balça
has developed a strong portfolio of work and a unique combination of skillsets – as a stage
director (of theatre, opera, and hybrid forms), a teacher and workshop leader, a presentation
skills, acting and creativity coach, and practice-based researcher. His work in all these
domains is distinguished by his commitment to and skill in making fantasy and invention
emerge from precise knowledge and training – and by his ability to inspire a similar alchemy
in his collaborators.

Classically trained as an actor and countertenor, he studied theatre directing in London and
Moscow, specialising in Shakespeare, techniques of adaptation, Meyerhold and commedia
dell’arte. Jorge also holds a PhD exploring the dramatic training of opera performers.
With a love for site-specific projects and collaborative forms, and an equal flair for comedy
and drama, his work is dramaturgically inventive, visually striking, and physically engaged.
He was the artistic director of Bloomsbury Opera and associate director of The Opera
Makers, both in London. In Portugal, he has recently directed L’Heure Espagnole and The
Turn of the Screw at Centro Cultural de Belém, and Don Giovanni and La Voix Humaine at
Festival de Ópera de Óbidos.

Jorge is committed to his work as a teacher, having taught at the Dutch National Opera
Academy, Morley College London, Universidade de Évora and other institutions. He
maintains an international coaching private practice and is the acting coach at the Neil
Semer Vocal Institute in Italy.
