The Duo will embark on a journey through four centuries of Italian music.
Starting from the brilliant Overture to The Barber of Seville by Gioacchino Rossini, the two guitarists would then take on to the sounds and rhythms of the Iberian Sonatas by Domenico Scarlatti and the Fandango by Luigi Boccherini, composers who spent most of their lives in Spain.
Through the dances clearly inspired by the South American composers Raffaele Bellafronte and Paul Devecchi, they finally come to the folklore of the Italian Salterello and Tarantella by Mario Gangi.
The moving music of Ennio Morricone’s famous film Cinema Paradiso will end their fascinating musical journey.
