Centre Plácido Domingo

Valencia, Spain

Under the aegis of Plácido Domingo, members of the Centre de Perfeccionament develop their interpretative style, they learn to feel the musical and dramatic nature of the different characters and operas, and study aspects that are so important to any singer such as expression, gestures, the intent of the spoken word, and its theatrical nature. They understand the fundamental idea of the importance of the libretto, the drama, the historical context of each opera, and its influences and consequences, etc.

The Centre’s headquarters are at the Teatre Martín i Soler, a theatre in the Palau de les Arts that can seat 380, where excellent acoustics make it possible to stage numerous activities, especially baroque and classical operas on a smaller scale.
