DONIZETTI EDUCATIONAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nThe cultural heritage constituted by the music of the past and of a great composer such as Gaetano Donizetti must be enhanced by continuing to dialogue with the present. A privileged place for this dialogue can only be the school, a fundamental junction between the past and the future.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
Educational projects for preschools<\/strong>, primary <\/strong>and secondary<\/strong> schools<\/strong><\/h3>\nOpera can be a dual resource being an opportunity both for knowledge in the most didactic sense of the term and for personal education and experience. Its didactic value, which makes it unique and unparalleled, is that of being the result of the interaction between different linguistic and communicative codes (musical, iconic, literary), lending itself, therefore, for interdisciplinary confrontation with school didactics. The educational value, then, lies in its subject matter: the work stages human stories and events and with them the joys, sorrows, achievements and desires of man, told through the words and gestures of the protagonists of the works. From time to time their emotions, their thoughts are narrated and, in this sense, opera is at the service of that emotional education of children, which is promoted in the school environment today. This is the new direction that moves the proposals of Donizetti Educational: emphasizing the figure of Donizetti as a Master of Emotions and enhancing the multidisciplinary nature intrinsic in opera itself.<\/p>\n<\/div>

For the coming school year we celebrate the return to the theater, closed first for restoration, then for pandemic and now ready to welcome all citizens.

\nDec. 1-2 at 9:30 a.m.<\/strong><\/p>\nA thousand years ago, in a world eager for prodigies, craving for wonders, the roads of our continent were plied by merchants and artisans, but also by another species of characters. Cheats, rascals, scoundrels. False mutes, false blind men, false prophets, false healers…. Often these poor wandering devils came from the world of popular entertainment. These two worlds seemingly so far apart, the charlatanry of the simulators and the castle of wonders of the acrobats, were instead close and traveled on the same cart coveting the same shields. After all, the anxiety of the impossible, the fascination of prophecies, the belief in the supernatural power of mysterious substances are very much alive even today. Who does not wish to find the drink, the prayer, the ritual that “settles all affairs”? Here we are, then, plunging our Dulcamara into the world of the circus, where it is at home in the acrobatics that have been, a way of communicating with the supernatural, with the divine. This creation is shaped by ten multidisciplinary artists. Singing an opera aria while suspended from an upside-down circle, playing a guitar while balancing another on their chins, performing complicated and dangerous acrobatic group choreography without stopping singing in chorus. Doing all this while interpreting characters from Donizetti’s opera. Teachers who will accompany their students attend a training course conducted by the Foundation’s teaching team, during which they are introduced to the opera and the activities that make students the stars of the performance, through sung songs, disguises and objects constructed in the classroom. <\/p>\n

\nDec. 1-2 at 9:30 a.m.<\/strong><\/p>\nA thousand years ago, in a world eager for prodigies, craving for wonders, the roads of our continent were plied by merchants and artisans, but also by another species of characters. Cheats, rascals, scoundrels. False mutes, false blind men, false prophets, false healers…. Often these poor wandering devils came from the world of popular entertainment. These two worlds seemingly so far apart, the charlatanry of the simulators and the castle of wonders of the acrobats, were instead close and traveled on the same cart coveting the same shields. After all, the anxiety of the impossible, the fascination of prophecies, the belief in the supernatural power of mysterious substances are very much alive even today. Who does not wish to find the drink, the prayer, the ritual that “settles all affairs”? Here we are, then, plunging our Dulcamara into the world of the circus, where it is at home in the acrobatics that have been, a way of communicating with the supernatural, with the divine. This creation is shaped by ten multidisciplinary artists. Singing an opera aria while suspended from an upside-down circle, playing a guitar while balancing another on their chins, performing complicated and dangerous acrobatic group choreography without stopping singing in chorus. Doing all this while interpreting characters from Donizetti’s opera. Teachers who will accompany their students attend a training course conducted by the Foundation’s teaching team, during which they are introduced to the opera and the activities that make students the stars of the performance, through sung songs, disguises and objects constructed in the classroom. <\/p>\n

The story takes place in Bergamo, in places dear to his fellow citizens: the enchanting Piazza Vecchia and the beautiful theater that, many years later, was dedicated to the Bergamasque musician himself.

Digital Experience <\/strong>: \u2013 iscrizione attraverso il form; The Donizetti Theater Foundation is finally ready to return to the stage in a newly renovated Donizetti Theater, in a city deeply scarred by the events of recent months, but already giving strong signs of restart and vitality, through an energy and courage that have never failed. The proposal dedicated to schools, then to teachers and educators and the young public, starts from this very premise. Our intent is to bring to life the great heritage of the past, particularly of our Gaetano Donizetti, one of the most famous and recognized Bergamasque composers in the world, through the relationship with our present. For the coming school year we celebrate the return to the theater, closed first for restoration, then for pandemic and now ready to welcome all citizens. Like every year, the season dedicated to schools consists of a collection of proposals divided by order and grade, to allow students to learn about opera and musical theater through performances and workshops dedicated to our Gaetano Donizetti.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> Donizetti Theatre Redotto<\/strong> Daniele Cortesi’s play tries to explain, with freedom and imagination, how the inspiration to compose L’elisir d’amore<\/em> might have originated in Gaetano Donizetti, and it ventures the not impossible friendship between the composer Gaetano Donizetti and the character of Gioppino Zuccalunga, both from Bergamo and both born in the late 18th century.
