ARCHIVED - October 6 Maestrissimo (Paganini 2) at the Teatro Guerra in Lorca


ARCHIVED ARTICLE

Intrigue and music in a fast-moving show at the Teatro Guerra in Lorca

<span style='color:#780948'>ARCHIVED</span> - October 6 Maestrissimo (Paganini 2) at the Teatro Guerra in LorcaMaestrissimo (Paganini 2) is a lively and fast-moving blend of various theatrical and musical genres, including chamber music, comedy, satire and period costume as it portrays the adventures of a string quartet sometime in the 17th or 18th century, a period which encompassed the Baroque and Neo-classical ages.

The main character is a musician whose ambition is to become a “maestríssimo”, his undoubted talent hindered by his lack of influence in the cultural hierarchy of the day.

The show at the Teatro Guerra in Lorca begins at 21.00 with tickets priced at 8, 12 and 15 euros. Online bookings can be made here, or alternatively the Teatro Guerra box office opens on weekday mornings from 11.00 to 14.00 and on Monday to Thursday afternoons from 18.00 to 20.00, as well as an hour before shows.

Information by phone on 968 473122 (9.00 to 14.00 and 18.00 to 20.00).

The rich and extensive history of Lorca has left a legacy of archaeological sites, and historic buildings, around which the modern City has built its tourism industry. Amongst these are Lorca Castle, the Jewish Quarter of the castle and Synagogue, Lorca Tourist OfficePlaza de España, Colegiata de San Patricio, Museo de Arqueologico Municipal, Iglesia de San Francisco, Casa Huerto Ruano, Palacio de Guevara, Iglesia de San Mateo, Pósito de los Panaderos, Convento Virgen de las Huertas, Antiguo Convento de la Merced, Iglesia del Carmen and the Teatro Guerra.  

Unfortunately Lorca has also been prone to natural disaster, suffering a Gota Fría on September 28th 2012, as well as an earthquake which measured 5.3 on the Richter scale on 11th May 2011 and claimed 9 lives. Since this earthquake the city has been rebuilding, winning recognition for its Lorca, Open for Restoration initiative, which used the restoration of the city as a tourist attraction whilst it rebuilt its historical buildings, some of which are currently still not open.

The tourist office itself has temporarily relocated until the renovations are completed and is inisde the Antiguo Lorca Tourist OfficeConvento de la Merced on the outskirts of the city beside the river where there is ample parking (paid parking).

Lorca also has an area of coastline incorporating the Parque Regional de Cabo Cope - Puntas de Calnegre, in the Sierra de Almenara, which includes the beaches of, Puntas de Calnegre, Baño de las Mujeres, San Lorca Tourist OfficePedro, El Siscal, Cala Honda, Cuartel del Ciscar, Junquera, Cala de la Gruta, Cala Leña, Los Hierros, Cala Blanca and Playa Larga, although many are accessible only through agricultural exploitations.

However, in spite of its many attractions, the name of Lorca is synonymous with Easter, (Semana Santa) its biblical parades of International Tourist Interest status and famous throughout Spain. The week includes a Lorca Tourist Officeseries of parades in which the whites (Paso Blanco) and blues (Paso Azúl) try to outdo each other with the magnificence of their embroideries and the skill and daring of their horsemen.

Lorca also has a Parador hotel, located within the complex of its historic castle.
