Highlights
An experience in which the public will find itself surrounded by projections, lights, music; a one-of-a-kind show in which the stages, the ceiling and the holographic sheets become the projection surfaces on which the narrative develops. Over the centuries, the harmonies and disharmonies of nature have inspired musicians and composers who have tried to translate into music the alternation of the seasons, the noises produced by natural phenomena, by living beings, by the movements of the cosmos. “Sounds in Extinction” questions and questions the viewer on the relationship between music, art and the natural environment, and on the evolution of this relationship in relation to a world that is increasingly artificial, urban, virtual and the danger of the progressive disappearance of entire ecosystems.

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.
Tickets
1 participant to 1 workshop € 10,00
1 participant to 2 workshops € 16,00
2 participants 1 workshop € 16,00

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.
