Global Hope Festival

• Meet the team •

We’ve known each other for a while now, but here are some -ugly?- truths about us, so you get to know us a little better. 100% female and working remotely from 3 different continents.

📌Cristina: Born and raised in Barcelona (no, there’s no Vicky...). I am a Puccini person and the scene of Liù’s death gets me every time, even if I already know it’s not going to go well for her. I will pet any dog I see on the street, often under the slightly annoyed look of the owner.
Short term goals: Surviving 2020.

@ Barcelona, Spain

📍Adriana González will take over the Global Hope Festival account to perform at our Final Concert on Monday, June 15 – 19h CET. At the moment, she is one of the leading sopranos in the opera scene. Her superb performance atOperaliaa 2019 has given her a great push towards success. — Attention! She is a perfect match for lyric roles like Micaëla, Contessa or Mimi. You better keep her on the radar, you will be amazed!⁠
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠
▶️ Adriana will be accompanied by conductor and pianist Takeshi Moriuchi, her partner for this special occasion. After her first album witAudax Recordsds was released at the beginning of the year, we can say French Mélodies are right up her alley. Whether she decides to sing those or some Arias, there is no need to say that this live concert is a memorable way to close the Festival.

An internationally sought-after soloist and ambassador for her instrument, her name regularly appears among concert halls, festivals and winners of competitions. This season, she is part of the "Great Talent" series of Wiener Konzerthaus. During quarantine, she came up with a brilliant idea: to invite artists from other art forms to inspire each other through creative challenges — is highly recommended!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Stay tuned on the Global Hope Festival IGTV to watch the performance of this musician from Vienna, promoter of both the romantic and contemporary music. We are finally hosting a harpist — we know some of our dearest followers have been waiting for this moment, and we are glad to bring you a Master to make you happy —, so don’t miss it!

Did you know that this tenor started on the piano, but later shifted to singing? His career skyrocketed after joining the Accademia Verdiana in 2018, and from that moment on he has participated in important opera productions, such as Rigoletto Macerata Opera Festival - Sferisterio, I due Foscari Teatro Regio di Parma, and Turandot and Carmen Fondazione Rete Lirica delle Marche — we met him while he was playing the roles of Pong and Remendado in the Marche, such good old days!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Stay tuned on the Global Hope Festival IGTV because the Duke of Mantua is coming back to our virtual stage. This time, Vassily is in the spotlight alone, but he is up to the challenge: he has prepared 3 arias, an incredible opportunity to listen to his powerful tenor voice. We are marking it on the calendar, we want to be in the front row. Are you doing it too?

**After this short concert you will think of Petros Klampanis as “a Bass Ace”, just like Bass Player Magazine does**
Petros Klampanis is performing live on Thursday at 20h (cet) on IG and his Facebook account:

This Greek bassist, composer and producer with a very successful career, especially in Greece and the US, and 4 highly praised albums is in the house! — For the record, his last album 'Irrationalities' was recently awarded at the 2020 The Independent Music Awards.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It might not be irrational to consider that this short concert is a unique opportunity to approach Klampanis' varied musical life journey: aggressive melodicism, beautiful intonation, and uniquely personal string writing. By integrating elements from multiple genres and, of course, the influence of Mediterranean and Balkan folk music of his childhood, this artist will now be part of your playlists! An IG live not to be missed!

This orchestra has driven baroque music forward, playing historical instruments and/or perfect replicas. That’s not all, they are always trying to find the right interpretation based on historical evidence. — Can you imagine the amount of research they carry out to play one single piece? Hats off to these passionate musicians, for trying to make this art accessible to us all!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Stay tuned on the Global Hope Festival IGTV to travel back in time: the online project brings you masterpieces from the 17th and 18th century performed by musicians who have a strong connection with the Brazilian ensemble: Jardel Souza on the viol (or viola da gamba) and the Catalan countertenor Víctor Jiménez Víctor Jiménez Díaz.

Please check it out and join us on Wednesday… it will be as impressive as it sounds!
