Milan, May 30, 2018 – The collaboration with Teatro alla Scala in Milan continues for the Italmobiliare Group, which – through this initiative as well – intends to contribute to the enhancement of the finest Italian excellences, renowned and admired worldwide.
L’ELISIR D’AMORE FOR CHILDREN
The support for the project “Great Operas for Little Ones” and in particular for the performance of L’elisir d’amore for children during the 2018-2019 artistic season, is part of the traditional commitment of the Italmobiliare Group – carried out mainly through Fondazione Pesenti – to promote and disseminate innovative programs aimed at developing ideas, projects, and actions capable of creating a positive impact on social and cultural levels, with particular attention to the new generations.
Following Rossini’s Il barbiere di Siviglia for children in the year marking the 150th anniversary of the great composer’s death, in 2018/19 it is Donizetti’s turn. L’elisir d’amore for children, conducted in as many as 29 performances between July 2018 and March 2019 by Pietro Mianiti, will be directed by Grischa Asagaroff.
To date, over 150,000 children have attended the performances in the Piermarini Hall and in the foyer have had the opportunity to meet and interact with the artists: this unique experience represents the beginning of a happy tradition, the chance to grow up knowing that this great Theater is not only accessible but also belongs to them.
This initiative means helping to spread and enhance the artistic and musical heritage, but also contributing so that an increasing number of children from different backgrounds – together with their parents – have the opportunity to “go to La Scala” and approach this artistic and cultural excellence.
