Thursday 22 June, at 9 pm at the Pala De Andr\u00e9, free admission to the concert<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Virtuosi\u2026and generous: when she created the Foundation that bears her name to support young musicians, violinist Anne-Sophie Mutter made the awareness of their responsibility as artists a pivotal point in their training \u2013 as music should be a gift for everyone. A tenet that, in the face of the tragic events that affected Italy\u2019s Romagna region in May, has immediately translated into the choice of renouncing her fee for the concert within the Ravenna Festival; this choice has been shared by the Mutter\u2019s Virtuosi, the ensemble established within the Anne-Sophie Mutter Foundation. Whereas the artists\u2019 donation is going to benefit the Municipal School of Music \u201cGiuseppe Sarti\u201d of Faenza, which was severely damaged in the flood, the concert on Thursday 22 June, at 9 pm at the Pala De Andr\u00e9, is open to the public free of charge, with a special invitations to those who have been on the front line during the emergency, official bodies and volunteers. Those who have already bought a ticket for the event are going to be contacted by the Ravenna Festival\u2019s box office and given the choice between obtaining a refund or donating the ticket price to flood-related charities. Free admission by reservation (from 16 June): info Box Office of the Alighieri Theatre +39 0544 249244, online ravennafestival.org)\u00a0 \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI have a deep love for the Romagna \u2013 says Anne-Sophie Mutter<\/strong> \u2013 Since my teenage days I frequently visited Ravenna and Cesena with my beloved teacher Aida Stucki and her husband Giuseppe Piraccini who was from that region. And I want to bring music, love, and empathy to the wonderful people of this beautiful area of Italy.\u00a0My fabulous Virtuosi\u00a0and I are hugely looking forward to sharing a musical embrace with all of you\u201d. In the gift concert on 22 June, Anne-Sophie Mutter is leading her Virtuosi in compositions by J. S. Bach \u2013 the Concerto BWV 1041 and the Brandenburg Concerto No. 3 \u2013 as well as in the Italian premiere of Andr\u00e9 Previn\u2019s Nonet<\/em>, in the only concerto Vivaldi created for three solo violins of equal importance, and in the Concerto No. 2 Op. 5 by Joseph Bologne Chevalier de Saint-Georges, who was nicknamed \u201cthe Black Mozart\u201d, among the first composers of African descent to be active in European classical music.<\/p>\n

\u201cThrough the example set by Maestro Muti and the experience with the Luigi Cherubini Youth Orchestra, we are deeply sensitive to the ethical scope of music and the importance of passing this message on to the next generation of musicians \u2013 explains the Ravenna Festival\u2019s Direction<\/strong>, General Manager Antonio De Rosa and Artistic Directors Angelo Nicastro and Franco Masotti \u2013 and for this reason, we are especially delighted for the Festival\u2019s 34th<\/sup> edition to feature such an extraordinary violinist as Anne-Sophie Mutter together with the young musicians who have trained thanks to her Foundation\u2019s aid. Now, after a flood whose consequences on the economic, social, and even cultural fabric will persist for a long time, the artists\u2019 understanding and support make us grateful and give us hope for the future. After all, this is the great lesson: music is relationship, exchange and connection; in short, generosity. So, thanks to Anne-Sophie Mutter and the Mutter\u2019s Virtuosi!\u201d<\/p>\n

The Anne-Sophie Mutter Foundation<\/em>\u00a0has been based in Munich since 2008.\u00a0Already in 1997\u00a0the \u201cFreundeskreis der Anne-Sophie Mutter Stiftung e.V.\u201d (Friends of the Anne-Sophie Mutter Foundation) was founded by the violinist.\u00a0Its aim is the global support of young, highly talented violin, viola, cello and double bass soloists. For years, Anne-Sophie Mutter has been performing together with scholarship students of her foundation to familiarise them with the life of a professional musician and introduce them to a broader audience. In 2011 she started the additional project Mutter\u2018s Virtuosi: this ensemble under the violinist\u2019s artistic leadership consists of current and former scholarship holders of the Anne-Sophie Mutter Foundation as well as selected other young musicians. On their tours, Mutter\u2018s Virtuosi regularly introduce their audience to new works; benefit concerts are also a fixed part of every tour programme.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
