Music Per-Formare: Dialogues Between Sounds, Words, and New Cultural Frontiers – Francesco Marola: *Don Giovanni* in the Romantic Tradition: From Mozart to E.T.A. Hoffmann’s Story
The “Musica Per-Formare” series, organized by the “B. Barattelli” Concert Society of L’Aquila for L’Aquila, Italian Capital of Culture 2026, continues with a prestigious event dedicated to one of the most iconic figures in European culture. Prof. Francesco Marola, a professor at the University of L’Aquila, will guide the audience on a literary and philosophical journey exploring the evolution of “Don Giovanni” from 17th-century comic theater to its complex Romantic reimagining. The discussion will explore how E.T.A. Hoffmann’s restlessness and the influences of Goethe’s *Faust* transformed Mozart’s libertine into a tragic hero hungry for the absolute.
The event, sponsored by the City of L’Aquila, will feature an exceptional musical prelude in collaboration with the “A. Casella” Conservatory. The METIS Trio will premiere“Moto Perpetuo”by the young composer Francesco Brandolini, a contemporary work that explores dynamic combinations based on hexatonal scales. The event represents a valuable opportunity for multidisciplinary exploration, weaving together sound and words in the heart of the historic center, reaffirming L’Aquila’s role as an international cultural hub.
