The acrobatic illusionism of Momix was performed with the world premiere of Alchemy. Then Romagna’s folk dances held the stage, with those waltzes, polkas, and mazurcas born in the farmyards of our countryside. The music could be heard everywhere, from the “balera” in the park in a whirlwind of a “polka day”, then passing over to Strauss’s noble Viennese dances, but also to Trovesi and Coscia’s jazz and the estranging sound of Simone Zanchini’s accordion, coming together at last for a festive tribute to Secondo Casadei.
The collection of musicians was enhanced by the performance of one of the greatest cellists of our times: Yo-Yo Ma.
