Roman Notes

The 10th century, which is "dark" for ignoramuses but fascinating for medievalists, has its own fascinations in Rome, to which 63 speakers will devote themselves in a crowded five-day session, including three members of the RIGG: Andrea A. Verardi (Rome), Stefano Manganaro (Pisa) and Simone Piazza (Venice). Originally planned for 2020 and conceived by Xavier Barral i Altet and Manuela Gianandrea, the conference brings together the Sapienza, Ecole Francaise de Rome, Hertziana and Federico II University.

Program

Brahms, Ein deutsches Requiem, and Mahler, Symphony No. 5 will be performed at the Church of Santa Maria in Ara Coeli on the Capitol on 15 June at 8.30pm.
