LuganoRegion Music Review, free admission
LuganoRegion is pleased to announce the 48th edition of Ceresio Estate, a blend of music, art, culture, history, and nature.
The 14 concerts of Ceresio Estate offer enchanting views over the waters of Ceresio, Lake Lugano. The name might derive from the Latin “Ceresium,” meaning bluer than the sky, or from the Celtic “Keresius,” branched due to its peculiar shape.
Also this season, space is given to students and graduates of the University School of Music (SUM) of the Conservatory of Italian Switzerland (Csi) such as oboists Alessia Vermi and Tommaso Duca, sopranos Alice Rossi, pianists Marco Borghetto and Federico Battista Melis.
Among the proposed music pieces are a world premiere by Romanian composer Gabriel Malancioiu, some “Pieces for unheard instruments” written by Ticinese Pietro Viviani, and three poems by Alberto Nessi set to music by Paul Glass, a well - known Californian author who has lived in Lugano for decades.
In the titles that define the context in which each concert takes place, it has been highlighted that some iconic compositions by Johann Sebastian Bach are distributed across four different programs.
To our loyal audience, both local and tourist, we wish to spend pleasant listening moments, immersed in the art, nature, and landscapes that only our region can offer.
