On November 12th the “Incontri musicali – i luoghi del bello e della cultura” starts its eighth season. Great classical music with concerts ranging from the 19th century to contemporary music will be the main feature. The concerts will take place in various locations in the municipality such as Valdottavo’s Teatro Colombo, Diecimo’s Pieve di Santa Maria Assunta, the Municipal Library and Borgo’s Convent of St. Francis, thus giving the public the opportunity of rediscovering places of great artistic and architectural relevance in the area.
The season is organized by the “Salotti” Civic School of Music with the patronage of the Municipality of Borgo a Mozzano under the artistic direction of Giacomo Brunini. The Colombo Theatre, the Barga and Castelnuovo Garfagnana Music Schools, Borgo a Mozzano’s Misericordia and Lucca’s Cluster Association are also collaborating in the concerts.
The concluding concert on 3 December (6 pm) is a piano duo and takes place in the splendid setting of Valdottavo’s “Colombo” Comunale Theatre. The duo, formed by Ilio and Caterina Barontini, will perform important works written by E. Grieg, G. Gershwin and I. Barontini.
Before the concert, M ° Ilio Barontini, a well-known soloist and for many years a lecturer at the Conservatory of Livorno, will hold a seminar for young pianists at music schools.
