The Show “Rossini’s Bassoon”
The show will kick off with a fun musical and theatrical performance, where a soprano, a baritone, a pianist and the actor will guide the spectators through an imaginary and surprising landscape.
Among the highlights of the evening, the duo “I Gatti di Rossini” will enchant with their performance, followed by the powerful voice of the baritone who will interpret “Udite Udite O Rustici” by G. Donizetti. The soprano, instead, will give life to “Il Brindisi” by G. Verdi, creating an atmosphere of celebration and festivity.
The script also includes literary incursions with excerpts from Rabelais and Rossini, evoking profound reflections on the pleasure of food and the art of living. The artists will interact with a laid table, making food the undisputed protagonist of the show.
Between notes of “Opera Buffa” and the famous verses of Anacreon, the audience will be accompanied in a crescendo of emotions that will culminate with the performances of great works such as “Fin Ch’han Dal Vino” by WA Mozart and “Ah! Quel Diner Je Viens De Faire” by J. Offenbach.
The magic of the evening will be enriched by a touch of mystery with the “Magic Potions,” and by a tribute to conviviality and gastronomy, masterfully narrated by actors and singers.
