FUNDACIÓN ÓPERA DE OVIEDO
2023-2024 season
Fundación María Cristina Masaveu Peterson is a patron of Fundación Ópera de Oviedo, an organisation that works to develop and promote operatic activities in Asturias. Each new opera season is an opportunity to reach more people and build a more generous, open-minded, free society.
The Fundación Ópera de Oviedo is a non-profit organisation, constituted on 6/07/1995, whose foundational aims are to promote, organise, support, assist and finance, within the scope of its possibilities, the Oviedo Opera Festival or Season. It also contributes, on a non-profit basis, to the promotion, development and dissemination of the performing arts in general and, in particular, those related to the world of opera, dance and ballet.
Every year, the Ópera de Oviedo strives to expand its repertoire and reach new audiences who, for one reason or another, have never been exposed to the opera, particularly young people, via initiatives like the special “Friday at the Opera” performances, with promising young singers and more affordable tickets. It also worked on inclusion projects with different organisations in the region and organised complementary activities, such as shows designed specifically for children, lectures, opera encounters at the Universidad de Oviedo, an opera film cycle, live broadcasts to several Asturian towns and different neighbourhoods in Oviedo, and series of talks and lectures about the importance of opera and its significance for Asturias.
La Fundación Ópera de Oviedo acogió, durante la LXXIV Temporada de Ópera de Oviedo 2021/2022, las siguientes obras: Nabucco de Giuseppe Verdi, La flauta mágica de Mozart, La bohème de Puccini o Lucrezia Borgia de Gaetano Donizetti.
