I Musici Veneziani: Baroque and Opera
Venice, Scuola Grande di San Teodoro — main
About the Event
The orchestra and singers of I Musici Veneziani will perform the most beautiful Baroque arias in the exclusive setting of the Salone Capitolare of Scuola Grande di San Teodoro near the Rialto Bridge in Venice.
The Baroque musical era lasted from around 1600 to 1750. Many of the greatest composers of classical music left their mark during this period, which is why you will probably recognise many compositions of Baroque music. Experiencing baroque music in Venice is a unique and beautiful way to make your holiday something you will never forget.
Established in 1996 with the aim of recreating the artistic tradition of the Republica Serenissima’s most splendid period, the I Musici Veneziani Orchestra, is formed of some of the most skillful Venetian musicians and singers.
It is still the only classical orchestra in the world where the musicians wear baroque style dresses created from original designs.

Scuola Grande di San Teodoro
The Scuola Grande di San Teodoro is dedicated to the original patron saint of Venice. The school is one of a remarkable group - the six Great Schools of the city. The establishment of the school can be traced to 1258, although the current structure was built between 1579 and1613 by the great architect, Tommasi Contin. The facade is topped by five statues, representing four angels and San Teodoro, above the rich entrance portal. The sculptures were created by Bernardo Falcon during the second half of the 17th century. I Musici Veneziani started performing their delightful concerts in the Scuola Grande di San Teodoro in the last few years of the 20th century. Many other artists have also performed in this famous School of Venice, including multiple performances of Vivaldi's 'The Four Seasons' by international classical stars.

Toujours très satisfaite malgré que je n'ai pas eu le nom du tenore. Le nom sur le programme ne correspond pas au chanteur. Peccato

Belle interprétation, pleine d'humour, dans une très jolie salle dotée d'une bonne acoustique. Programme un peu court, idéal pour intéresser les grands enfants à l'opéra. Je recommande.

Для знатоков классической музыки и оперы концерт слабоват. Но если хочется просто провести приятно вечер в камерном зале итальянского палаццо и послушать оперные хиты — в самый раз.

Soirée absolument magnifique. Musiciens et chanteurs lyriques très au dessus de la moyenne, le tout dans une ambiance joyeuse et conviviale. Il n'est pas besoin d'être un mélomane averti pour apprécier. A renouveler absolument.
