Orchestra Barocca San Marco is coming to Brežice
Dear friends of early music and Seviqc Brežice festival
On Wednesday, August 15, 2018, Italian Orchestra Barocca San Marco, under the direction of Paolo Faldi, is performing in the Brežice Castle with the concert programme Antonio Vivaldi: Arias and concertos. Soprano singer Lucia Cortese and soloists will take us on a journey to 18th Century Venice’s theatres, where most of Vivaldi's operas were staged.
An hour before the concert, at 19:30, there will be a festival upbeat, where conductor and oboist Paolo Faldi will present the concert programme and some other interesting facts. After the conversation, which will be held in English, you can visit the exhibition of The Posavje Museum Brežice Ethnographic Films on the Life of the People of Kapele and Pišece.
At 20:30 is the concert. Paolo Faldi's message to you: »Antonio Vivaldi was one of the most brilliant, volcanic and surprising violinist and composer of his time. I found in the Biblioteca Nazionale di Torino, library in which there are almost all the manuscript operas by Vivaldi, a lot of Operas Seria in which the singers had to be the most clever, brilliant and virtuoso singers in the world. Some of these arias are proposed in this program together with some virtuoso concerts for strings and wind instruments, like oboe and trumpet.«
