Bratislava. Eugenio Becchetti, lead organist of the Basilica Superiore di San Francesco d’Assisi, will perform in Bratislava on December 4th the concert “Mistero Gaudioso” dedicated to Saint Francis. The concert was organised by the Italian Institute of Culture of Bratislava with the sponsorship of the Italian Ambassador to Slovakia, Gabriele Meucci. “The programme of this concert, that testifies to the relevance of this great mystic, ranges from classical music to more contemporary music such as Pietro Yon (an Italian composer who migrated to the USA and who taught the young Cole Porter for many years who then went on to become a jazz star), Gustav Merkel, Jehan Alain, and others.
