P. I. Čajkovskij (1840-1893)
Sextet in D minor op. 70 “Souvenirs of Florence”

36′ | Admission €15

Of Florence, in Tchaikovsky’s “Souvenir”, there is not much. From the first note, the listener will immediately recognize the Russian character, passionate and popularizing, which runs throughout this masterpiece. Florence is for Tchaikovsky more than anything else a refuge to which happy and carefree memories are linked. These will be the true “souvenirs” that the composer pours into this piece of heated lyricism, brought to the stage of the Galleria degli Specchi by an ensemble of friends from the Festival.
