On the occasion of the 500th anniversary of Cortes de Jupiter, the Belém Cultural Center challenged the director Ricardo Neves-Neves to adapt this tragicomedy by Gil Vicente. For this reconstruction, we took from the world of jazz the composer and pianist Filipe Raposo, whose mission will be to give an opera structure to Gil Vicente’s piece and music. With the participation of the ensemble La Nave Va and musical direction by António Carrilho. The Alma Ensemble also participates, with vocal coordination by Filipa Palhares.
This is the first work to come out of the Portuguese Opera Laboratory, created by the CCB in partnership with CESEM and APARM.
