On Saturday, July 5th (5 PM), in the “Gavazzeni” Foyer of the Teatro Donizetti, the “final event of The Center of Music is scheduled, a series organized by the Teatro Donizetti Foundation in collaboration with the” Department of Social Policies of the Municipality of Bergamo. The “Ensemble Locatelli, a group specialized in baroque music, will close the series of six concerts, with a tribute to the music of Alessandro Scarlatti, marking the 300th anniversary of his death this” year.
Love in the Moonlight, the title given to the concert, is an invitation to be enveloped by beauty, to reflect on the power of “love and on the” eternal dialogue between humanity and the divine. The performance will feature talented interpreters, accompanied by original instruments that will restore all the sonic purity of Italian baroque. The “intimacy of the voices and the warmth of the strings will frame a narrative where” musical art meets the magic of myth.
At the center of the program will be the serenade “Diana and Endymion,” one of the hidden gems of the baroque repertoire. This masterpiece, inspired by the classical myth of the love between the moon goddess and the young shepherd, unfolds through suspended emotions and haunting melodies that evoke the mystery and poetry of the night. Alessandro Scarlatti, an unsurpassed master of expressiveness and theatricality, guides us through the torment and ecstasy of a divine love, delivering a work imbued with grace and depth.
