Comments for Musica a Palazzo http://www.musicapalazzo.com Opera a Venezia in un magnifico palazzo sul Canal Grande Mon, 19 Jul 2010 11:44:42 +0000 hourly 1 Comment on GuestBook by Jai http://www.musicapalazzo.com/guestbook/comment-page-1/#comment-9793 Jai Mon, 19 Jul 2010 11:44:42 +0000 http://musicapalazzo.lavetrinadivenezia.com/?page_id=11#comment-9793 We are just back from a weekend in Venice. We specifically went there for the Opera at the Palazzo, which on Saturday was the Barber of Seville. Stunningly, amazingly good. For context, we are not regular opera buffs, but we've been to Covent Garden, Glyndebourne, Sydney, but prefer the 'popular' operas. This format at the Palazzo is unique and fantastic. We felt as though we were on stage, even part of the cast. The performance is right in front of you, and all around you. It is very personal when Figaro actually cuts MY hair, and when Il Dotore, looking for the note, displays the pen RIGHT under my nose, saying (in Italian) look, the pen is still wet with ink. Just fantastic. The Palazzo rooms are large, but small for an opera stage. The result is that the music from only a 4-piece orchestra completely fills the room, and the lead violin may be only a few feet away. The Palazzo is rich and sumptuous, a perfect setting for an Opera (it really is as though you are in Il Dotore's house), and its right on the Grand Canal. Highly personal, highly professional, totally memorable. I cannot recommend this highly enough. We are just back from a weekend in Venice.

Le temps est comme suspendu dans le décor et l'ambiance de rêve de ce palazzo vénitien et la prestation artistique de haut niveau nous a enchantés. Beaucoup d'émotion, très vivant, nous sommes plongés au coeur du drame qui se déroule autour de nous et le vivons très intensément. Même nos adolescents de 13 et 16 ans ont trouvé ce moment tout simplement magique. Merci ! Une inoubliable soirée à Venise, la plus bouleversante sans aucun doute.

With a bit of good luck, I found Musica a Palazzo via Inet. La Traviata was a real delight. Brought into the interiors of Venetian palazzo, Violetta and Alfredo have become as close to us as part of family, or friendly circle. With all my heart, I recommend you to attend and see Musica a Pallazzo with your own eyes. If you love Opera, let it be your special treat. If you think Opera to be out-of-date, duying art, go and check it yourself. Surprise may await you.

I had never attended an opera before, and did not expect what was presented. It was an excellent evening and we are still talking about it a year later. Bravissima & bravissimo!!
