The new edition of the music festival Musica e Spirito will take us on a journey to discover the spiritual and fascinating world of Baroque music. One and a half centuries – from ‘600 to half ‘700 – that saw exceptional musicians stand out: Bach, Händel, Vivaldi, Scarlatti, Monteverdi, and many others. Performances are embellished with spiritual reflections by Father Dario Tisselli to enhance the harmony with artistic inspiration.
The Choir of the Basilica of San Francesco of Ravenna was founded in May 2012 by the collaboration of the Concentus Novus vocal group, Mosaici Sonori cooperative and Franciscans Friars Minor of this basilica, to promote the study and dissemination of sacred music through concerts and various events (courses, seminars, conferences). The conductor is Giuliano Amadei.
