THEME
The Opera, the Composer and the Artists
Melodrama - a blend of music, poetry and passion - can conceal peculiar choice inextricably bound to the historical moment in which they were wrote and heavily influenced by the personality of the author and those around him.
The heart of the event is thus the "Musical conversation". This consists of the Verona Arena Foundation’s Maestro and Singer presenting, at the piano, the Opera programmed for that evening, providing Guests with an invaluable guided listening and narrating key aspects - and equally important minor ones - of the plot, the music and the life of the composer.
The Wines, the Flavours, the Producers
The first part, designed to provide the Visitor with all the information he/she needs for the full appreciation of the Opera at the Arena, will be followed by the Wine Tasting of one of the very best of Verona’s wines, acompained with oils and flavours.
The Cuisine
Those wishing to remain in our company can attend the Gala Buffet Dinner served in the same location or in one of the best restaurants of Verona city centre (when less then 10 persons). All just in time to be ready for the start of the evening Opera in the Arena.
The Arena Show
The evening goes on with the magic Arena Show.
