SUMMARY:Accademia Saxophone Quartet - "80th Season of the 'Bonaventura Barattelli' Aquila Concert Society"
DESCRIPTION:The “B. Barattelli” Concert Society of L’Aquila celebrates the excellence of chamber music in Abruzzo with the return of the Accademia Saxophone Quartet. On the occasion of the Barattelli’s 80th season\, the ensemble—composed of Gaetano Di Bacco\, Enzo Filippetti\, Giuseppe Berardini\, and  Fabrizio Paoletti —celebrates a historic connection with the city that began right here in L’Aquila in 1984.  \nThe program offers a musical journey through the versatility of the saxophone: from Singelée’s 19th-century works to the French sophistication of Françaix\, all the way to Romero’s South American rhythms. The highlight of the evening will be the world premiere of “Respiri di quiete mobile\,” a work commissioned from composer Fabio Massimo Capogrosso to mark Barattelli’s 80th anniversary.  \nThe concert will conclude with the stirring “Cinemadinote” suite\, a tribute to the unforgettable soundtracks of Nino Rota and Ennio Morricone. An unmissable event that combines musicological research and cinematic inspiration in the heart of the 2026 Capital of Culture.  \nFOR INFORMATION AND TICKETS:\nhttps://barattelli.it/

SUMMARY:L'Aquila Theater Season: Marcinelle\, a Story of Miners
DESCRIPTION:A new production by the Teatro Stabile d’Abruzzo in collaboration with Alt Academy Produzioni\, written and directed by Ariele Vincenti\, who will also appear on stage alongside Francesco Cassibba\, Vincenzo Tosetto\, Sarah Nicolucci\, and Giacomo Rasetti\, with music and sound design by Tiziano Gialloreto and set design by Alex Chiti. \nThe work intertwines“Grand History” with the personal stories of four miners\, meticulously reconstructing their journey from Italian train stations to Belgium\, where they faced extremely harsh living conditions in quarters converted from former concentration camps and grueling shifts a thousand meters underground.

SUMMARY:Schubert's "Armida" Quartet - 80th Season of the "Bonaventura Barattelli" Aquila Concert Society
DESCRIPTION:The star of this first event is the Armida Quartet\, an internationally renowned ensemble composed of violinists Martin Fulda and Wojciech Koprowski\, violist Teresa Schwamm\, and cellist Peter-Philipp Staemmler. The quartet made a name for itself on the international scene by winning first prize at the ARD Competition in Munich in 2012 and is now recognized for the high quality of its performances and the originality of its artistic projects. Active in Europe’s major musical centers\, the quartet is distinguished by a rigorous yet innovative approach to the repertoire.\nDeparting from the chronological order of composition\, this first concert brings together two emblematic works from Schubert’s oeuvre: the String Quartet No. 9 in G minor\, D. 173\, an early work of great freshness and verve\, and the monumental String Quartet No. 15 in G major\, Op. 161\, D. 887\, a masterpiece of his mature period\, characterized by extraordinary expressive richness and a dramatic tension of rare intensity.\nThis quartet cycle is presented not only as a tribute to one of the greatest composers—considered Beethoven’s heir—but also asa unique opportunity to experience Schubert’s captivating and passionate music.   \nFOR INFORMATION AND TICKETS\nwww.barattelli.it

SUMMARY:The Carnival of the Animals
DESCRIPTION:The program opens with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Concerto No. 10 in E-flat major for two pianos and orchestra\, K. 365\, a masterpiece of the double-piano repertoire composed in 1779. The work\, likely intended for performance by Mozart himself and his sister Nannerl\, is distinguished by the lively dialogue between the two pianos\, supported by brilliant and elegant orchestration that showcases the composer’s ability to blend expressive freshness with formal refinement\, giving rise to a musical conversation rich in ideas and contrasts.  \nNext\, the highlight of the concerts: *The Carnival of the Animals*\, Camille Saint-Saëns’s famous “zoological fantasy\,” composed in 1886. Structured in 14 short scenes\, the work is an ironic and refined musical play in which the composer portrays animals and characters through timbres\, rhythms\, and musical references. From the lion’s solemn march to the clucking of the hens\, from the lightness of the aquarium to the swan’s famous elegance\, each piece is characterized by brilliant and imaginative writing\, capable of evoking evocative and at times satirical atmospheres.   \nThe Main Characters \nPatricia Khachkalyan Gomes A Portuguese-Armenian oboist and conductor\, she is currently a student at the Royal College of Music in London. She has led various projects in the United Kingdom as principal conductor and artistic director and has conducted several ensembles. This season\, she continues her work as conductor and artistic director with Nova Philharmonia and assumes the same role with the Madeira Youth Sinfonia Orchestra.   \nSergio Marchegiani and Marco Schiavo form a duo acclaimed by audiences and international critics alike for their highly personal style\, the natural flow of their musical expression\, the beauty of their sound\, and the intensity and overwhelming energy of their performances. They have given hundreds of concerts around the world\, performing in the most prestigious venues.  \nGiampiero Mancini\, actor and voice-over artist\, Giampiero Mancini is a versatile actor and director who works in monologues\, musicals\, spoken-word theater\, and musical theater.
