Each concert will be introduced by a short listeners’ guide prepared by Andrea Parissi from the Fondazione Rossini and will end with a friendly brindisi.
In the context of the 44th edition of the Rossini Opera Festival, the young singers of the Accademia Rossiniana will present, at the Museo Nazionale Rossini, the Concerti al Museo, recitals for voice and pianoforte, on the 5th, 12th, 15th and 17th August, beginning at 11.00 a.m. and on the 14th August at 12.30 p.m.

The opera will be performed in the historic 2001 staging by Emilio Sagi which over the years has been sung by prominent pupils of the Accademia, today well established Rossini specialists all over the world. The production will be rehearsed by Matteo Anselmi.
As part of the Next Generation project, the 18th August performance will be broadcast in live streaming on OperaVision, the free platform offered by Opera Europa and co-financed by the Europa Creativa programme.
