Opera - Advent in Music

More information about:

The concert on 22 December 2025 at the Church of the Dominicans, part of the “Advent in Music” programme for the Bolzano Christmas Market, will take the audience on a musical journey filled with tradition, spirituality and the warm atmosphere of the holiday season.

The evening opens with “O Signore, dal tetto natio” from I Lombardi alla Prima Crociata and “Adio Monc” from Aneta, followed by the iconic “Va’ pensiero” from Verdi’s Nabucco. The programme continues with “Jesus bleibet meine Freude” from Cantata BWV 147 by Johann Sebastian Bach, and Mozart’s radiant “Alleluia” from Exultate, Iubilate.

The concert then moves into the reflective beauty of César Franck’s “Panis Angelicus” and “Stella d’argiento” by Corrado Sfogli and Carlo Faiello. International colours enrich the programme with the African traditional “Siyahamba”, Adolphe Adam’s beloved “Cantique de Noël”, and three timeless Christmas classics: “Adeste Fideles”, “Stille Nacht” and “White Christmas”.

The performance features sopranos Victoria Burneo Sanchez and Anna Bellosguardo, baritone Walter Franceschini, and the G. Verdi Lyric Choir of Bolzano in collaboration with Estrolirica, accompanied by pianist Luca Schinai and conducted by Claudio Vadagnini.
