Made thanks to the contribution of the Ministryfrom the Regionof the Municipality of Sassari and of Foundation of Sardinia the billboard points to one excellent proposal which is placed in the standard of the most important Italian theatres.
We start with the symphony And with a change of plan: the concert of Uto Ughi expected
For Wednesday 24 Aprilfor reasons of the Maestro’s health, will be rescheduled, with a new setting, again on the Comunale stage, Sunday 13 October. The news arrived today together with a short note from Ughi addressed to the public. “I am deeply sorry – says Uto Ughi – of having to postpone this concert, which I was very keen on, but I am sure that the public will understand and will be happy to attend a new project next October, which I am working on in this period which involves the newborn “Ughi Foundation” and which I decided to bring to Sassari. For now I can tell you that it is a wide-ranging work, designed for those who love music, created to arouse curiosity and involve the new generations too.”
To inaugurate the billboard Wednesday 24 April will be another exceptional protagonist of the international violin tradition: Massimo Quarta. Winner in 1991 of the Paganini Prize of Genoa, the third Italian to win the prestigious award, Massimo Quarta boasts a career that has seen him as a protagonist in Italy and abroad for almost 30 years as soloist and director. The revolutionary aspect given by Quarta to the reinterpretation of Paganini’s repertoire won over the public, earning him wide acclaim from the international press and a place of honor among the most illustrious violinists. Massimo Quarta was recently nominated by de Carolis Guest Principal Conductor for the symphony and also by virtue of this role he made himself available to support the organization in this sudden remodulation of the program. On April 24th Quarta will be engaged in the role of violin
soloist and director ofde Carolis Orchestra in a program that will feature music by Mozart (Violin Concerto k 219 And Symphony No. 40 in G m K 550) and of Niccolo Paganini ( The Palpiti op. 13). Massimo Quarta, already acclaimed guest of the 2023 season of the Institution will return to the stage of the Municipality May 4th to conduct the organisation’s orchestra in a program dedicated to the music of Tchaikovsky (Symphony No. 4 in F minor op. 36 and Concerto for Violin and Orchestra in D Major, Op. 35).
The third date with the symphony (May 11th) will be entrusted to another leading exponent of concert music Umberto Benedetti Michelangeli who will conduct the organisation’s orchestra with a program dedicated to Mozart (Concerto for piano and orchestra No. 5 K 488 in A Major) and Beethoven (Symphony No. 5 in C minor op. 67). On this occasion, another established performer will also take to the Comunale stage: the pianist Leonora Armellini among the winners of piano competition international Fryderick Chopin.
The autumn recovery will be inaugurated on October 13th by the announced project by Uto Ughi.
To close the symphony season it will instead be the October 19th the director Daniele Agiman
already applauded in the last edition for the direction of the 20th century diptych. Agiman will lead the de Carolis Orchestra in a concert that will see the artists of the SIAA Foundation. “Sic itur ad astra” (this is how you rise to the stars) this is the meaning of the acronym of the association based in Liechtenstein which, as a non-profit, it supports young artists from the beginning of their career and introduces them to the profession, presenting them to the public on prestigious concert occasions. The Sassari theater has been chosen among the venues where the foundation’s artists will perform in 2024.

The fulcrum of every production will be this year too the Institution’s Orchestra much appreciated by the public and critics even in the last concert and opera season.
