The Víctor Fernández Gopar Theater "El Salinero" was the stage chosen by the Lanzarote Ensemble orchestra for the staging of the work "The Twilight of the Gods."

The concert held on Saturday night consisted of two parts, a first where 'Fantasy on the Twilight of the Gods' by the composer Wilhelm Richard Wagner was performed, with a total of 22 musicians participating. In the second part, the absolute premiere of the 'Piano Concerto No. 1' by the Lanzarote pianist and composer Ernesto Alemán was performed, a work created for this occasion for the Ensemble itself.

The soloist of the concert was Ernesto Alemán himself, showing his exceptional virtuosity, a work with romantic overtones that was widely applauded by the audience. Ernesto, very excited and grateful for the audience's response, presented them with an encore for solo piano, ending the concert with a second encore where the audience stood up and applauded and thanked all the participating musicians, their director Ayoze Rodríguez, and the young Lanzarote pianist and composer Ernesto Alemán for the masterful concert.
