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:Free Flight: Anna Karenina
DESCRIPTION:Anna Karenina challenges us to reflect on the emotional world that unexpectedly overwhelms individual and social experience\, bursting forcefully into reality and the imagination. A character who seems predictable at first glance but is deeply enigmatic—one who has managed to draw an entire social context into the existential vortex of emotions. In a train station waiting room—a place of arrivals and departures\, a crossroads of lives—she reappears\, ready to confront her own experiences\, drawing passengers into a theatrical interplay: life bursting onto the stage and the stage bursting into everyday life. The audience is transported into Tolstoy’s great novel\, revealing the intimate\, human\, spontaneous\, true\, and timeless essence of the characters. Anna’s journey into herself—through her love for Count Vronsky and her conflict with her husband Karenin—is the journey of many of us; once again\, the director uses literature to explore the human soul\, and in this case\, a universal emotion: passion.     \nSeven Cults Theater Company\, Rome\nDirected by Filippo D’Alessio\nArtistic Director: Manuele Morgese \nTickets at https://www.cinemazeta.it/

SUMMARY:All the Necessary Extravagances: “Jim and Me”
DESCRIPTION:By Giuseppe Tomei\, with Davide Grillo\, Marco Valeri\, and Riccardo Biscetti\, a performance and theater workshops centered on the themes of irony\, philosophy\, and rediscovering the meaning of life. \nIn a dystopian future\, the echoes of ’60s rock still manage to throw open the doors of perception\, but what they reveal might be more unsettling than any reality. An ironic\, psychedelic\, and musical journey through the fears and anxieties of the modern age.\nThe show is the result of a collaboration between musician Riccardo Biscetti\, Spazio Rimediato\, and I Guastafeste\, directed by Marco Valeri. This creative synergy has led to the creation of an original script that combines contemporary technologies\, spoken-word theater\, dramaturgy\, and narrative\, musical\, and interpretive experimentation; by analyzing the latest innovations in communication—particularly artificial intelligence—the goal of this National Premiere is to create a synergistic catharsis with the audience\, who will find themselves immersed in a hypothetical reality rich with infinite possibilities but equally fraught with unsettling existential doubts. The show\, with its lighthearted and engaging tone\, gradually shifts toward an intense and impactful finale.    \nFor information and reservations\, call 3280527856 or 3406688091\, email\n\, or visit spaziorimediato@gmail.com\nwww.facebook.com/spaziorimediato\nwww.instagram.com/spazio_rimediato

DESCRIPTION:SHARED Physical (Installation)\, curated by the “Alfredo Casella” Conservatory of Music and Academy of Fine Arts in L’Aquila\nSHARED VR\, a virtual reality experience curated by the Polytechnic University of Turin\nShared is an interactive musical-visual work that explores the boundary between man and machine. Gestures are transformed into sound and image by Artificial Intelligence\, in an experience that combines sculpture\, music\, and virtual reality.\nThe Polytechnic University of Turin brings its technological expertise to ItARTS with Shared VR\, a virtual reality performance adaptation of Michelangelo Lupone’s Shared that invites the audience to enter a shared auditory and visual environment—one that is constantly evolving and open to participants’ contributions. Wearing a VR headset\, each participant takes on a digital avatar with which they can explore the virtual space\, select and manipulate sound forms that—translated into light trajectories—give rise to ever-changing audiovisual landscapes. In this process\, gesture and listening become tools for collective creation. The generative core at the heart of the experience collects and transforms the contributions of those present: sounds and movements are absorbed\, reworked\, and rendered as new configurations\, creating a narrative flow that belongs not to a single individual but to the temporary community that\nforms within the work’s space.\nShared VR thus brings art\, technology\, and human sensibility into dialogue\, exploring the delicate balance between the individual and the collective\, between control and surrender\, and questioning the contemporary meaning of “sharing.”\nThroughout the Festival\, from stage to stage\, the results of user testing will guide the subsequent phases of the project. The final version will be unveiled at the conclusion of the ItArts Festival\, as the outcome of a research process that intertwines artistic\, scientific\, and technological approaches.

They recount the magic of imaginary worlds and the secret power of the words that bring them to life. Reading thus becomes a gentle journey toward the most authentic and free part of each of us\, while cinema establishes itself as a universal language capable of uniting and moving people.   \nFor Preschool and Elementary School \nHARRY POTTER AND THE PHILOSOPHER’S STONE is the first novel in the high fantasy series written by J. K. Rowling and set primarily in the fictional Wizarding World during the 1990s. Conceived in the early 1990s\, it was published in 1997. The film adaptation was directed in 2001 by Chris Columbus and written by Steve Kloves. PLOT: An orphan enrolled in a school of witchcraft and wizardry learns the truth about himself\, his family\, and the terrible evil plaguing the wizarding world.    \nFor Middle School \nCORALINE is a fantasy novel for young adults written by Neil Gaiman and illustrated by Dave McKean\, published in 2002\, winner of the Hugo Award and the Nebula Award for Best Novella\, and published in Italy in 2003. In 2009\, a stereoscopic animated film based on the novel\, titled *Coraline*\, was released\, directed by Henry Selick. The stop-motion animated film was written by Neil Gaiman and illustrated by Dave McKean. The film was nominated for an Oscar in the Best Animated Feature Film category for the 2010 awards. PLOT: Coraline discovers a secret door in her house and is transported to a parallel world identical to her own… but better.
