Autumn Festival | Les Chemins de l'Amour - Trio Phōnė (Fonè)

Poetry and music will take each other by the hand with the Trio Fonè concert: for the Autumn Festival, the ensemble will propose a journey in the sign of love from the second half of the 18th century to the present day. The journey will start with the first tempo of Mozart's Symphony k183, and end with the more recent "Che coss'è l'amor" by Vinicio Capossela, with poetic interventions dedicated to love.

On the setlist will be music by Schubert, Verdi, Saint-Saëns, Offenbach, Kreisler, Poulenc, Gershwin, Piazzolla, Elton John, Lucio Battisti, skilfully mixed with verses by Saffo, Alfieri, Byron, Neruda, D'Annunzio, Prévert and Montale. All the pieces that will be performed have been specially transcribed by maestro Giovanni Mazzuca for the members of the trio, guests of the most prestigious concert seasons throughout Europe.

Protagonists of the concert are: Sabina Fedele, viola, who boasts an intense concert activity as a soloist and in chamber groups and orchestras, spanning a variety of repertoires; Giuseppe Arnaboldi, violin, who has collaborated with prestigious orchestras, such as the Teatro alla Scala in Milan and the Arena in Verona, as well as performing in chamber ensembles in Italy and abroad; and Giovanni Mazzuca, piano, enfant prodige, who at only twelve years of age was a gold medalist and finalist in national and international competitions, and has also recorded for national radio.

The Trio Fonè concert for the Autumn Festival will be on 19 September 2023 at the Chiostro di San Giovanni (Catanzaro).
