Summary
An incredible concert by Compagnia del Madrigale – Il Pomo d’Oro will warm the hearts of those attending the opening night of the exhibition 'Venice, the Jews and Europe. 1516- 2016'. At the astounding Doge's Palace, the concert will be conducted by Riccardo Minasi, with music by Benedetto Marcello, Salomone Rossi, Louis Saladin, and Abraham Casseres to name a few. Jewish musicians and dance masters from the Renaissance to present day will be celebrated throughout the events surrounding the 500 year anniversary of Venice Ghetto.
General Information
From Jewish classical music composers who resided in the Venice Ghetto to Christian composers who wrote solemn Jewish music inspired by classic prayers- everything was possible in Venice. The 'Music without Borders' concert will bring the fascinating musical contrasts between the ghetto life and city life in Venice to the ears of guests at the opening night of the exhibition.
