A dressing room, a casting, an opera... a voyage of music, emotions, joy and unexpected twists.
The best trips are those that take us to places where we have never been or that takes in a different manner to places we thought we knew. The same thing happens with shows. La commedia è (in)finita invites us to travel to Zurich, New York, Madrid, Naples, the Canary Islands, Barcelona, Vienna, Michigan… During the trip, we will discover, amongst many other things, the privacy of a dressing room in an opera theatre; we will take part in a casting, attend an opera performance, be caught in a snow storm and share a table at a restaurant.
Guided by the communicator, musician and writer Ramon Gener and accompanied by Tosti, Rossini, Paisiello, Cimarosa, Donizetti, Martín i Soler… we will relive the experiences and artistic adventures of the world renown comic bass Carlos Chausson in an intense, peculiar, surprising and very moving recital.
In 1892, Ruggero Leoncavallo ended his famous opera Pagliacci with the words “La commedia è finita” (the comedy has ended). Now, more than one hundred years later and after a 40-year long career, Chausson says goodbye to the stage with a show full of music, truth and passion.
