Each piece will be contextualised through explanations of its style, instrumentation and historical period, presented in an accessible manner for the general public.

The performance will be given by thirty musicians from the "Amici della Musica" APS City of Muggia Wind Orchestra, under the musical direction of conductor Andrea Sfetez.

The event is aimed at the general public, schools, cultural and musical associations, and anyone wishing to learn more about the history and culture of the local area.
