2013 Programme

EVENT #22

Peppe Servillo, Toni Servillo, Solis String Quartet

Sing me a poem

 

A concert, a recital, a celebration of music, poetry and songs dedicated to Naples, to the eternal magic of its living tradition, to the importance of an encounter between different eras. On this special occasion, Toni and Peppe Servillo, who both took part in this Festival’s past editions, make their joint comeback on the stage. Together with the Solis String Quartet, they will perform poems and songs in a tribute to Naples’ great theatrical and literary culture. Through the works of classical and contemporary authors they will introduce the audience to Naples’ inexhaustible poetic heritage. A special event on the Festival’s 10th anniversary.
