Santa Cecilia Tour
Summer 2025
New concerts in Italy and abroad for the Orchestra and Chorus of the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia, starting in the summer season of 2025.
The first event is the Tour in Spain, which will take Santa Cecilia to Andalusia for the very first time. Conducted by Daniel Harding, the program includes works by Debussy and Ravel for the opening concert in Granada on July 5, followed by Verdi’s Requiem on Jul
Next, the two cities of Ravenna on July 10 and Ravello on July 12 will provide the setting for an Italian tour, where Daniel Harding will conduct a richly Austro-German program featuring Brahms’ Symphony No. 2, excerpts from Wagner’s Tristan, and Mahler’s Blumine.
Three different musical programs are planned for the European Tour in August/September. The schedule includes seven concerts featuring three exceptional pianists alternating on stage: Martha Argerich, Rudolf Buchbinder, and Igor Levit. From August 28 to September 7, the musicians will appear at some of Europe’s most prestigious music festivals, including the Enescu Festival, the Berlin Festival, and the Ljubljana Festival.
