Classical music, opera and visits to the Maricel Palace are the latest proposals of Sitgestiu

The Sitgestiu 2019 enters the final straight line. Next Sunday, the summer cultural campaign of Sitges Museums ends, which has filled the July and August calendar with opera, jazz and classical concerts, as well as heritage tours and children's workshops.

Also tomorrow, Thursday (9pm), the last concert of the Clàssica at Racó cycle will be held, organized jointly by Sitges Museums, the Department of Culture and the Mirabent Magrans Contest.

The opera also arrives at the end, next Sunday (7pm), with the last concert by Cavalleria Rusticana, by Pietro Mascagni. The tragic Sicilian love story will be triumphantly staged at the Golden Hall of the Maricel Palace, where this summer shared billboard with 'Madama Butterfly' by Puccini.
