Program

The Andrew Lloyd Webber musicals released in Manhattan have engraved in our minds immortal melodies such as: Memory (Cats), Don’t Cry for me Argentina (Evita), Gethsemane (Jesus Christ Superstar), Masquerade (The Phantom of the Opera), etc. And this concert includes them all.Some of Webber’s works, such as Cats and The Phantom of the Opera, hit the stages of Broadway and have stayed there for 20 years! Cats has exceeded 7,000 consecutive performances and The Phantom of the Opera 12,000. In 1992, Barcelona was treated to a song written by him, which became a big hit: Amigos para siempre (Friends for Life). However, Lloyd Webber’s musicals are not about numbers: they are exciting, they stir up our emotions, they make us laugh, cry, love, etc. They are art in its purest form. Through fantasy, they connect us with the world around us, because they’re always about human emotions, although sometimes the main stars are cats.
