Brass Quintet of the Teatro alla Scala
On 21 July at 8.30 pm, Ceresio Estate brings the Brass Quintet of the Teatro alla Scala to the park of Villa Rusca in Cureglia. An open-air concert that combines the power of brass instruments with the elegance of chamber music.
The title “Heavy Artillery, but with Lightness” captures the character of the evening: an ensemble of striking sonic presence, yet capable of moving with precision, humour and flexibility through a programme ranging from opera to Romantic tradition and Broadway.
The encounter with musicians from La Scala offers the public the opportunity to hear a distinctive side of orchestral sound at close range.
Free admission.
Music by:
Vincenzo Bellini
Victor Ewald
Giacomo Puccini
Leonard Bernstein
