I Suoni delle Dolomiti: Lana Kos, Mikheil Sheshaberidze e i Solisti di Verona
E lucevan le stelle: Immortal Duets and Arias by Giacomo Puccini
Tribute to One of the Greatest Opera Composers on the Centenary of His Death. On the centenary of Giacomo Puccini's death, I Suoni delle Dolomiti will pay tribute to one of the greatest opera composers of all time, who left an indelible mark on the history of music. Operas like La Bohème, Tosca, and Turandot are admired worldwide for their melodic beauty, emotional depth, and powerful dramaturgy. It will be the most famous arias and duets from the works of the Tuscan composer that will guide the audience across the meadows of Villa Welsperg in Val Canali, at the foot of the Pale di San Martino, to listen to the voices of soprano Lana Kos, one of the brightest stars in the world of opera, and Georgian tenor Mikheil Sheshaberidze. They will be accompanied by I Solisti di Verona, an ensemble formed by principal musicians of the Arena di Verona Orchestra, who have collaborated on various artistic projects and performed in major concert halls worldwide: Gunther Sanin on violin, Giampiero Sobrino on clarinet, Sara Airoldi on cello, and Roberto Corlianó on piano, who also curated the transcriptions.
