Description

Enjoy a refined and original musical proposal with pianist and composer Luis de Arquer every Saturday at 8:30 PM. Listen to the music of Chopin, Beethoven, and his own compositions and improvisations in the intimate setting of El Teatre més Petit del Món. Located in one of the most charming neighborhoods of Barcelona, the Gràcia neighborhood, El Teatre més Petit del Món is part of Luis de Arquer's house and set in a sought-after nineteenth-century harmony. The evening ends with a glass of cava in a romantic 19th-century garden by candlelight. As a tourist guide from The New York Times tells the most demanding music lovers, «This may be your most enchanting musical evening in Barcelona.» El Teatre més Petit del Món is located inside a house from 1890 called ¨La Casa dels Músics¨, one of the first music schools focused on teaching music exclusively to adults, created by Luis de Arquer in 1998. The Theatre was initially created as a space for students’ auditions, but a year later, and as a result of an unexpected meeting with one of the world’s most important critics and musicologists in relation to opera, in 1999 Roger Alier, ¨The Smallest Opera House in the World¨ was inaugurated, where around fifty small-format opera performances were offered (taking into account that the grand piano was not on stage ;-). The mural painting that can be seen behind the piano is from Salzburg Castle Ffor W.A.Mozart’s «Bastien & Bastiana» Opera, and the window that some of you can see to the right of the stage belongs to the opera «A Day With Vincente» by Luis de Arquer, which premiered at this Theatre in 2000 and is a reproduction of the painting of the Arles room by V. Van Gogh. The state of the house is not the original one, since when Luis moved in it had a modern appearance, so it has been transformed little by little by himself over the years. The paintings are the work of the painter Cayetano de Arquer Buigas, Luis’s father and an artist known for his famous nape of the neck and a continuator of 19th century Catalan painting. In addition to his father, Luis belongs to a tremendously creative and well-known family in Barcelona, since several of its most emblematic monuments, such as the Fountains of Montjuic and the Columbus Monument, were created by his great-uncle and great-grandfather.
