Maxim Vengerov will perform Sibelius in Madrid with the Atlántida Chamber Orchestra on 7 October. DOCE NOTAS readers can get 30 percent off seats in zones B to F with the code "DOCENOTAS".

On 7 October, Maxim Vengerov will perform with the Atlántida Chamber Orchestra at Madrid's Auditorio Nacional de Música. Sibelius's Violin Concerto anchors the programme. DOCE NOTAS readers can get 30 percent off seats in zones B to F.

The discount code is "DOCENOTAS". The offer excludes the red and green zones, while seats in the other listed areas remain eligible.

Vengerov is the basic draw, regarded as one of the great violinists of recent decades. His deep interpretations and exceptional technique, shaped by distinctive musicality, matter in Sibelius's concerto, which makes heavy technical and expressive demands on its soloist.

Glinka opens the programme with the Obertura de Ruslán y Ludmila, whose bright orchestral energy gets the evening off to a fast start. Dvořák's Sinfonía nº 8 closes the second half with a broader symphonic sound and an optimistic mood.

Founded in 2015 and led artistically by Manuel Tévar, the Atlántida Chamber Orchestra brings together symphonic and choral repertoire with Spanish musical traditions, including flamenco and zarzuela, as well as film music and contemporary composition. Its 2026/27 plans include performances and touring activity in Spain, Germany, France, Austria and the United States.

Tévar will conduct the orchestra, guiding an evening that moves from Glinka's overture to Sibelius and then Dvořák's symphony. Vengerov's Sibelius is the basic focus; Glinka provides a vivid operatic opening, and Dvořák brings the night to a full symphonic close.

This concert is part of the Atlántida Chamber Orchestra's 2026/27 season. A season report in Docenotas says the programme also includes works by Vivaldi, Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Brahms and John Williams. Ainhoa Arteta and Mischa Maisky are among the announced soloists.

The Docenotas report also lists planned performances and touring activity in Germany, France, Austria and the United States, including a Carnegie Hall appearance in New York in May 2027. The Vengerov concert opens the season.

Organisers provide the full programme on the Atlántida Chamber Orchestra website. To book, use "DOCENOTAS" and choose a seat in zones B to F; the red and green zones are excluded.

Event promotional information sets out the programme and discount terms. Docenotas' season coverage identifies Vengerov, the orchestra, Tévar, the Madrid venue and the 7 October opening date.

Vengerov brings the technical weight Sibelius demands, while Glinka and Dvořák give the evening a wider frame. DOCE NOTAS readers can get 30 percent off in eligible seating areas.
