Music leadership in opera stage direction Strehler and virtual art training

AbstractFor the integral formation of the human being, attention to aesthetic education presents a virtual training that deserves attention to all the educational activities related to it. In this sense, and in the field of opera, the contribution of music leadership –in the articulation of arts involved in staging– is key to the necessary aesthetic experience. The “critical” direction of Giorgio Strehler provides the rationale that justifies the stage direction of opera from the musical drama, for which we present in this research a case that shows how the convergence of arts, in the staging of opera linked by the score, is an avenue for aesthetic education of the individual. © 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd
