Programme
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.

Presentation
With this project made of breath, air, wind, vital breath, we hope that the Earth, progressively freed from pollution, can breathe again.
The piece, of great emotional intensity and sonic and musical fascination, is intended (in the promoters’ intention) as a liberating trigger of strong energies, directed towards an ever-increasing awareness of environmental and sustainability issues and the actions to be taken to implement them.
A Sound Ecology project to affirm once again affirms that music and the practice of the musical instrument are fundamental in the overall development of the individual, harmonising cognitive faculties with the deepest moods and emotions and acting as a stimulus for the development of the expressive and creative potential of the human being and his interpersonal relational network.
In addition to its specific artistic content, the work’s formative value is particularly significant. In an intergenerational and inclusive experience of new musical languages, it brings together 4 soloists and 100 very young flute players from the flute classes of the Palermo schools with a music focus, from the Liceo Musicale and young Conservatory students who act as tutors in this great project of migration and change.

A musical journey for expecting families
A project entirely dedicated to expecting families – both the parents and their arriving child.
Two workshop to discover classical music, singing and to find one’s own voice, creating a cradle of sound for the whole family.
The workshop is recommended from the fifth to the eighth month of pregnancy, when it is scientifically proven that the foetus begins to perceive and react to sounds coming from outside. Replaying the sounds perceived during gestation, especially the parents’ voices, after birth produces relaxing effects, intensifies the sound bond with the baby and promotes vocal identification.
The workshop is held in Italian and a basic knowledge of the language is strongly advised.

Workshop practical info
The Opera minus 9 project includes two workshop meetings in comfortable spaces, where activities of musical listening, vocal experimentation and discussion are proposed. Mothers and their companions can attend one workshop or both:
Workshop 1 (31 May): a guided listening session of live classical music, proposing interesting listening activities to be repeated at home during the months of pregnancy, a magical experience in contact with musical instruments and their vibrations;
Workshop 2 (7 June): a music and movement workshop with practical tips for playing with music in the family in the first months of life.
