The Veneto Festival has taken place since 1970 during the summer season, touring the most artistically interesting places (theatres, historic villas and monumental churches) in the Veneto and neighboring regions, and is today one of the most important events in Venetian musical life. Of great artistic and cultural importance thanks to the dense network of relationships that connect it with various foreign festivals, it boasts a conspicuous presence of world-famous artists, always invited to give breadth and splendor to every single concert, with results that also from a spectacular point of view they have inscribed it among the most prestigious and qualified International Festivals in Europe.
This edition of the Giuseppe Tartini International Festival will close in Padua on 6 September, with I Solisti Veneti conducted by Giuliano Carella and a concert to pay homage to its founder Claudio Scimone on the sixth anniversary of his death.
The Orchestra returns to the symphonic formation extended to woodwind and brass, as in the inaugural concert, to close the event with two important symphonies, « La Passione » by Haydn and « La Casa del Diavolo » by Boccherini, together with Mozart‘s violin concert par excellence: the Concerto in A major KV 219. Three compositions not performed in recent times but much loved by Maestro Scimone and which are part of the history of I Solisti Veneti.
