orchestra

One year ago, the Swiss ambassador to Costa Rica, Yasmine Chatila Zwahlen, learned that the Camerata Bern was scheduled to perform at the Morelia Festival in Mexico. The famed Swiss orchestra has toured extensively since it was founded in 1963, and Zwahlen wondered whether the Camerata could make a pit stop in Costa Rica.

If you’re wondering what’s new at the National Theater, here’s a quick summary: 120 concerts, 25 dance recitals, 10 theatrical productions, and at least five presentations that defy any category. Visitors will also find a renovated stage (in March), gallery shows in the café, and a two solid weeks of performances during April’s International Arts Festival.
