Concerti del Tempietto: Christmas Concert (CONCERTO DI NATALE Baroque joys and Balkan dreams)

About the Event

There are nights when music does not console, but reveals.
Vivaldi opens the door, Handel lights the flame, Rossini laughs at fate. Then Rachmaninoff arrives, and his Russian melancholy intertwines with the dreams of Gjogjiev and Prokopiev, amid Macedonian echoes and a piano that breathes like an ancient soul.

Julijana sings as if snow had a heart. Angela plays as if time had stopped to watch them.
It is a different Christmas—not the one in the shop windows, but the one that is born in silence and rises in a cry of beauty.
A dialogue between the Baroque and the East, between purity and nostalgia, between faith and abandonment.

Baroque joys become music, Balkan dreams become prayer.
Rome, once again, listens.
