Music for Saint Rosalia between past and present

Invitation to Listening for Quattro canti per Santa Rosalia

This conference is in Italian.

Free entrance

Saint Rosalia is the patron saint of Palermo and has been worshipped over the centuries not only through religious events but also by spectacular events in baroque style, in which music often played a leading role.

“4 Canti per Santa Rosalia” opens the 2024 Summer events of the Teatro Massimo, making a link with these events thanks to new music, commissioned to four composers. Together with the creators of the show and experts in the history of music in Palermo in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries we will take a journey through time to rediscover an ancient tradition.

You can access the Sala Onu through the stairs located in the stage door area (on the right side of the main entrance, close to Via Pignatelli Aragona).
An accessible pathway, with no steps and the elevator, is also available (ask the staff for guidance).

The presentations are organized by Associazione Amici del Teatro Massimo.
