About
Monday, March 4 2024 | Main Stage
Conductor Michele De Luca
Dramaturgy and Acting Paolo Migone
Massimo Kids Orchestra
Comedian Paolo Migone explains that classical music is not something incomprehensible or particularly strange, but is first and foremost music.
So why not let ourselves be moved and involved by the music of the great composers? Migone guides us into a universe unknown to many, and he does it in his own way, with absolute originality, lots of irony and without any prejudice or pretentious snobbery. The show is engaging, entertaining, enriched by slides, and in the narration four of the most incredible musicians in the history of music are associated with the four elements: Vivaldi with the water, Bach with the earth, Mozart with the air, Beethoven with the fire, as if to emphasise the indispensability of music for humanity.Tickets

The plot
In an ethereal scene, lit by a soft, delicate light, a garden of bare peach trees appears. The petals of the flowers have fallen to the ground, the lanterns still hang from the branches. It seems that winter has passed or is about to arrive. Three characters behind their masks, like shadows, appear on the scene. They tell an ancient story, that of Princess Turandot, victim of a curse that has involved the whole kingdom. Her frozen heart cannot love, feel emotions and so her kingdom loses vigour, light and hope. Only the arrival of someone of great courage could break the spell that has made her the Ice Princess and the whole kingdom could return to shine and love.

The plot
The legend of Tristan and Isolde, one of the most romantic stories of the Middle Ages, is very old: it tells the adventures of a knight and a princess who fall in love thanks to a magic elixir. Wagner composed the opera based on Goffredo di Strasburgo’s text and staged it in 1865. It is still considered one of the masterpieces of all time. The version that will be performed, while maintaining the essential dramaturgical and musical lines intact, is adapted in such a way as to exalt the magical and symbolic fairy-tale aspects of the story, which has at its centre important themes linked to the imaginary and ideal horizon of the world of chivalry, such as the search for love, the relationship between public morality and private morality, sin and fidelity.

The plot
What a big mountain of boxes! So many locks, laces and padlocks… what could possibly be hidden back there? One foot… two hands… three musical notes… one eye… two lips… three riddles to be solved by dawn. Are you in there, Turandot? Calaf is looking for you! Are you sure you won’t come out? Look at your wings. Your cocoon is just a moment, a before, which will become a butterfly afterwards. Don’t be afraid!
