Spend about 80 minutes with Elvin Dhimitri and the Opera e Lirica string quintet performing Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, plus other Baroque works. The concert may take place at a Methodist church, Palazzo Poli near Trevi Fountain, or Horti Sallustiani. Seats are first come, first served.
“Professional musicians! Great experience, recommended. Only pay attention, that the place where it is happening is a bit chilly inside.”
Spend 90 minutes hearing Bach’s organ works, his Orchestral Suite No. 3, and Vivaldi’s Four Seasons inside St. Paul’s Within the Walls. Pick up your ticket from 7:45 pm, then enjoy the 8:30 pm concert near Via Nazionale, Piazza della Repubblica, and Termini Station.
“Excellent great music and venue. Exciting experience for my daughter and I. If I go back, I will do this again.”
Spend an hour with Chopin and Italian opera favorites at Rome’s Waldensian or Methodist Church. A live pianist performs works by Chopin, Verdi, Mascagni, Puccini, Debussy, Gershwin, and others in an intimate setting for $35.
“Réservation faite par erreur dans les 10 min j’ai envoyé un mail pour annuler aucune réponse à ce jour. Je n’ai pas assisté au concert je ne peux donc pas juger la prestation mais l’organisation est insatisfaisante”
Spend about 90 minutes with Opera e Lirica’s string quintet and harpsichord at 8:30 pm in Sala Dante of Palazzo Poli. Violinist Elvin Dhimitri leads Vivaldi’s Four Seasons in an intimate setting near the Trevi Fountain. Seats are assigned by the box office, and smart casual dress is expected.
“The music was wonderful in a beautiful church. We hand a great time and it was touching to listen to Four Seasons in person! But I would suggest people to buy a normal concert ticket to Four Seasons since I think it is a bit only for tourists.”
Tour Princess Doria Pamphilj’s private apartments with an English-speaking art historian, then hear Schola Romana Ensemble perform Frescobaldi, Monteverdi, and others on period instruments in the Throne Room.
“It was a wonderful event in Rome. The warm soprano of Paola and great guitar and flute playing of Lorenzo and Stephano. It was an unforgettable evening in Rome for me and my daughter. Also our dinner after the concert was great: typical Italian food of very good quality.”
Pick a genre, a room or a night of the week.
