Programme Note
Experience a unique musical journey with Mediterranean Strings — a concert that brings together two of Italy’s most gifted classical musicians, the Ciampa‑Piccotti Duo. Cellist Erica Piccotti and classical guitarist Gian Marco Ciampa deliver an evening full of expressive warmth, refined virtuosity, and a deep musical connection. Their repertoire blends the rich colours of Spanish folk tradition — from Albéniz and Granados to De Falla — with the lyrical elegance of Italian opera, featuring works by Paganini, Rossini, Bellini and Donizetti. The result is a soundscape where cello and guitar speak as one voice, weaving melody and emotion in every note. Whether you’re a longtime classical lover or new to this combination — this concert promises to enchant, move and stay with you long after the final chord.
