SUMMARY:Musica Per-Formare 2026: Dialogues Between Sounds\, Words\, and New Cultural Frontiers
DESCRIPTION:A Conversation with Musicologist Francesco Zimei: “The Origins of the Lauda: St. Francis and the Jesters of God” \nAs part of “Musica Per-Formare. Dialogues Between Sounds\, Words\, and New Cultural Frontiers\,” a project by the Società Aquilana dei Concerti for L’Aquila\, Italian Capital of Culture 2026\, L’Aquila-based musicologist Francesco Zimei\, professor of music history at the University of Trento\, invites you on a journey: “The Origins of the Lauda\,” with particular reference to the Canticle of Brother Sun\, composed by Francis of Assisi exactly eight hundred years ago. Crucial to the success of the lauda repertoire was the Saint’s very idea of adopting an immediate and persuasive language for preaching—one capable of engaging the masses by drawing on the communicative skills of the jesters\, true mediators between art and devotion. The event is being streamed on Barattelli’s social media platforms.    https://barattelli.it/eventi/musica-per-formare-2026-francesco-zimei-in-alle-origini-della-lauda-san-francesco-e-i-giullari-di-dio/

SUMMARY:itARTS Festival: Back to L'Aquila - "I Fiati del Casella" - Wind Orchestra Concert!
DESCRIPTION:The festival’s concert program faithfully reflects the richness and variety of the Conservatory’s educational and artistic activities. The program spans the centuries\, from 16th-century L’Aquila—with the rediscovery of Pasquale Tristabocca’s madrigals—to bold contemporary electroacoustic experiments\, passing through the classicism of Muzio Clementi\, the romances of Francesco Paolo Tosti\, and the 20th-century works of Casella\, Dallapiccola\, and Rota.\nThe program strikes a balance between modernity and tradition\, with offerings ranging from chamber music to jazz\, as well as tributes to the classics of Italian song and to great masters such as Ennio Morricone.The participation of ensembles such as the Conservatory String Orchestra\, I Fiati del Casella\, and I Solisti with the Casella Orchestra attests to the students’ high level of training and their active involvement in artistic production\, a fundamental pillar of the Conservatory’s mission.

SUMMARY:Music Per-Formare. A Conversation with Musicologist Ilaria Giani: "Conductors Without an Orchestra: Classical Music and Gender Stereotypes"
DESCRIPTION:“Musica Per-Formare – Dialogues Between Sounds\, Words\, and New Cultural Frontiers.” The second event of the Barattelli project for L’Aquila\, Italian Capital of Culture 2026\, features musicologist Ilaria Giani.  \nIlaria Giani\, a native of Cremona with degrees in piano and musicology who teaches at a middle school\, sheds light on conducting by women while exploring the challenges women face in the music profession in Italy. \nIlaria Giani introduces the event as follows: “What are the gender stereotypes associated with the world of classical music? How do they affect choices regarding academic and professional paths? What symbolic barriers still hinder the full recognition of women in the role of conductors? These questions will drive a discussion supported by data and personal accounts.” \nAdmission is free. The event will be streamed live on the Società Aquilana dei Concerti Facebook page. You can participate online via the ZOOM platform by clicking on the link https://us06web.zoom.us/j/85630160172\, which will be active starting at 4:00 p.m. You may request a certificate of participation.
