Tickets go on sale the evening of the concert at the box office of Teatro Rossini. Infoline: 080.5412302). The concert will be repeated on Friday, March 4 at 21:00 at the Auditorium of the Salesians in Santeramo in Colle (free admission) and Saturday 5 March at 21:00 at the Basilica of San Nicola in Bari (free admission). The evening opens with a performance of 'Op 26 Overture, Fingal's Cave of Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy (1809 - 1847). Composed around 1830, but revised several times over the next two years, this was inspired by Mendelssohn's Overture from a trip in the Scottish Highlands. In particular, after visiting the island the Staffa of Fingal's Cave - the father of Ossian in accordance with the English mythology - the author was so impressed by the sound of waves crashing on the mouth of the cave, they decided to reproduce the unique sound. Not surprisingly, the overture opens with a motif of the arches and wood that evokes the magic and lapping, in a sense, it dominates the entire duration of the composition. L'Ouverture was performed for the first time in London on May 14, 1832 under the leadership of Thomas Attwood. Maybe, then, the time of the "Dream of a midsummer night, suites from incidental music, Op. 61. Mendelssohn composed the suite op. 21 "A Midsummer Night's Dream Summer "at the age of 17 in 1826, on the basis of the enthusiasm felt after reading the homonymous work of Shakespeare. Then, re-use the same material to make the music scene of the work represented in July of '43 in Potsdam, commissioned by Frederick William IV of Prussia. On that occasion, Mendelssohn added thirteen new paintings are listed with opus number 61 / a. Absolute masterpiece for so young an author, describes the overture with a singular effect on the fantasy world as imagined by Shakespeare, starting from the four agreements delicate introduction, followed by a lift off the strings. The concert ends with the performance of the Symphony No 1 in C minor, Op. 11. Precocious musical talent, Mendelssohn composed his first symphony at age eleven in 1820 and four years later the number had increased to twelve. However, these works remained unpublished for a long time and then not included in the official catalog of compositions. An exception to this rule, although it is very close to the adolescent nature of previous symphonies, No 1 in C minor, Op. 11, composed in 1824, which, however, Mendelssohn initially attributed the number XIII.
