Funamviolistas Symphonic
An award-winning experience that fuses music, theatre and humor, now with a symphonic twist


🎻 What is Funamviolistas Symphonic?
A symphonic expansion of The Funamviolistas, the acclaimed and award-winning theatrical concert created in 2013 by Lila Horovitz, Ana Maou and Mayte Olmedilla.
This unique show blends chamber music, physical theatre and humor with the richness and energy of a live orchestra.
🎻 The best way to bring the orchestra closer to new audiences
🎶 An original score in dialogue with stage movement
🕊️ No words. For all audiences. Without borders
🎭 ¿Why It Connects with All Audiences?
The show takes us through a variety of situations and stories — from everyday, humorous moments like waking up confused in the middle of the night, arguments, or watching a horror film on TV, to more symbolic and poetic scenes: the shipwreck of a boat, the fear of failure, loneliness...
What’s new in this proposal, compared to what we already know from Funamviolistas, is its educational focus and the integration of the orchestra into a multidisciplinary language.
Music, with its evocative, transformative and universal power, will take us as far as our imagination allows — on a fantastic journey full of emotion.
Running time: 55 minutes
Recommended for schools: Ages 6 to 17 – Primary and Secondary
Recommended for family/general audiences: Ages 5 to 99
