The event was the work of the conceptual artist Eugenio Ampudia and included a show from the UceLi Quartet string instrument quartet.
According to the statement made by Liceu, a total of 2,292 plants were placed in the theater while performing the “Crisantemi” of the string string quartet Puccini.
Although people were not in the audience, the audience could watch “Concierto para el bioceno” via live broadcast.
The famous opera house said in a statement, “it welcomes and pioneers a highly symbolic action that advocates the value of art, music and nature as an introduction letter to our return to action.”

The opera house added that the organizers who followed this “strange, painful period” wanted to offer us “a different perspective for our return to the activity, a perspective that brings us closer to something as important as our relationship with nature.”
Spain’s coronavirus emergency forced Liceu to suspend the program of events in mid-March.
The country’s state of emergency ended on Sunday, and cultural venues can now be reopened with a limited number of viewers.
Artists all over the world are struggling with the restrictions applied during the coronavirus pandemic.
