November 6th, 2015 – The verses of the biggest poets combine with the notes of the most important composer, creating a journey through words and music, of timeless emotions and charm. The great literature of Metastasio, D’Annunzio and Carducci merges with the notes composed by Bellini, Puccini, Tosti, Martucci and Pizzetti in a grand evening at the Italian Cultural Institute of Munich. The concert “When poetry meets music” is scheduled for Tuesday, November 17 at 7pm and will feature Maria Anelli (soprano) and Nazarene Ferruggio (pianist). These two Italian talents who live in Bavaria will guide guests on an intense and engaging journey where the rhythm of the poetic verses fits perfectly with that of music. The event fully reflects the theme of the 15th Week of Italian Language in the World, “Italian music and the musicality of Italian”, which was organized in collaboration with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, the Consulate General of Italy, the Accademia della Crusca, the Dante Alighieri Society of Rome and the Consulate General of Switzerland.
