April 29th begins the concert season with the “Matinées at the Castle”

29 April 2018 @ 8:00 - 6 May 2018 @ 17:00

 

“Hommage à John Williams”
Sunday, April 29th at 11.30, the first concert of the five events with the great music in the picturesque setting of Santa Severa’s Castle

After the highly appreciated concert review “Castello Armonico”, completed last January, organized by the Massimo Freccia Association in collaboration with Regione Lazio, LAZIOcrea, MIBACT, Coopculture and the Municipality of Santa Marinella, the Massimo Freccia Youth Orchestra will kick off the “Matinées at the Castle“, a festival full of truly unmissable musical events, a kaleidoscope of cultural and artistic moments of great quality with proposals ranging from the Johann Sebastian Bach Concertos to the most important soundtracks by John Williams, from the Stabat Mater by Giavanni Battista Pergolesi at the Canti del Golfo di Napoli by Renzo Rossellini as well as a concert dedicated to the immortal Ouverture by Gioacchino Rossini and Giuseppe Verdi.

At the inaugural concert, the Massimo Freccia Youth Orchestra conducted by Massimo Bacci will pay homage to John Williams, one of the greatest and universally recognized composers of soundtracks; the full suite of Star Wars, ET, Indiana Jones and Harry Potter will be performed. The young OgMF Junior will also join.

Stimulated by the excellent public response of the previous series of concerts – underlines the Artistic Director Massimo Bacci – with the Matinées at the Castle we propose a very varied billboard that I hope will catalyze the attention of the fans. This new concert festival is part of a targeted program that, in addition to the opportunity to live together the emotions that transmit the great masterpieces, gives the opportunity for further growth to many young concertists who make up the OgMF, an orchestral team that is always more affirming in the Italian music scene, an uncommon example of interaction between generations of musicians inspired and strongly desired by the great conductor Maestro Massimo Freccia“.

 

The next events: Sunday May 13th and May 20th, June 3rd and June 10th, at 11:30 am at the Castle of Santa Severa.
