Slovak dance
Open-air performance by the Slovak National Folklore Ballet Lúčnica, an acclaimed song-and-dance ensemble from Bratislava.
Two festivals, two cities.
Festival Cervantino: a venerated, vaunted veteran ensconced in a graceful, petite comely jewel of a town.
Festival Sucede: a scrappy upstart looking to make a name for itself in a sprawling, unruly metropolis.
The Met: Live in HD
The Metropolitan Opera’s award-winning series of high-definition live simulcasts begins its 12th season with a new production of Bellini’s “Norma,” directed by Sir David McVicar and conducted by Carlo Rizzi, starring Sondra Radvanovsky.
Cinema Paraiso& Amelie
Musical scores from both award-winning films played by pianist Roberto Salomon. Cinema Paraiso at 4 p.m. and Amelie at 7:30 p.m.
The second annual Sucede Festival, a six-week blitzkrieg of free cultural events at over 105 locations around Guadalajara, kicks off Saturday, October 7.
