Additional Information

Come experience a grand selection of Italian opera masterpieces and romantic piano compositions in a concert you will cherish. The concert leans on the tradition of major theaters in Italy where the piano is the predominant instrument, replacing the entire orchestra, with no string quartets or similar arrangements present.

Enjoy iconic arias and duets by maestros like Verdi and Puccini, fascinating solo piano performances by Chopin and Liszt which will alternate with vocal performances. The program concludes with classic Neapolitan songs for a true homage to Italian musical brilliance.

We have internationally acclaimed tenor, Alessandro Fantini, and pianist Giovanni Velluti to lead our talented ensemble and offer enlightening commentary in English. Following the concert, take part in a complimentary Aperitivo, a chance to mingle with the performers.

Wonderful also for families - It was a fantastic experience with great singers and piano player. The artists are outstanding and the atmosphere is great! We were sceptical if our kids 8 and 10 would enjoy it but they were watching and listening with open eyes and mouth (-; The only thing I don’t understand is - why is such an event not fully booked out for next twelve months? One of the best experiences in rom - thank you !!

Beautiful - Sublime evening of opera from amazing performers. Set in an intimate church so you are up close to the performers. Both the sopranno and the tenor were exceptional and the pianist was incredible. Some of the arias brought me to tears. They were performed with such emotion and the quality was astounding. I thoroughly recommend this to anyone visiting Rome. A totally affordable way to experience opera.

A new appreciation for opera - Wow, what an experience. Not something we would usually attend but it was recommended to us by my cousin and as we were staying close by near Piazza Barberini, we thought 'it's only an hour, why not?' We weren't disappointed. Even though we're not opera goers, one couldn't fail to be impressed by the voices of the singers and the skill of the accompanying pianist. Set in the chapel of an old church, the acoustics allowed the music to soar effortlessly and sweep the audience up. Do try and go if you're ever staying in Rome.

Amazing evening for a Rome visit! - A wonderful evening to enjoy beautiful voices singing opera. We were surprised how many songs we knew not being opera experts. Intimate setting, engaging, and emotionally charged. Highly recommend adding this to your Rome visit!
