In collaboration with the cultural association “Musica con le ali”, a concert by pianist Giovanni Bertolazzi will be held in the Sale Apollinee of La Fenice Theater on Thursday, January 12, 2023.
Considered one of the emerging talents of Italian concert music, the young Veronese pianist already counts numerous first prizes in some of the most prestigious international competitions and collaborations with orchestras of the highest level. Giovanni Bertolazzi has made research on the composer Franz Liszt his hallmark, to which he has devoted much of his training until the crowning achievement of the prestigious second prize at the Franz Liszt International Piano Competition in Budapest and the recent recording of a monographic disc dedicated to him and which has met with unanimous acclaim from specialist critics.
The Franz Liszt program includes:
- Après une lecture du Dante. Fantasia quasi Sonata, S. 161
- Hans von Bülow – Dante’s sonnet “Tanto gentile e tanto onesta”, S. 479
- Totentanz. Paraphrase on Dies Irae, S. 525
- Recueillement, S. 204
- Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 in C-sharp minor, S. 24
