GIUSEPPE VERDI, IL CIGNO DI BUSSETO
Presentation of the book and show for children by Cristina Bersanelli
The recently published book Giuseppe Verdi, il Cigno di Busseto, becomes a show for children with the reading of the author Cristina Bersanelli, alternating with musical performances of Solisti di Accademia Verdiana. From his first assignment as an organist at Roncole to his failed admission test at Conservatoro di Milano, passing by his marriage with Giuseppina Strepponi, till the great successes of Nabucco, the construction of Villa Sant’Agata and the project of Casa Verdi, with an eye also on the activity of the Club dei 27 and more. In Giuseppe Verdi, il cigno di Busseto, the show inspired by the book by Cristina Bersanelli with illustrations by Patrizia Barbieri and published by Teatro Regio di Parma, the great composer presents himself to children by walking them through his long and adventurous life and glorious career. The show summons the characters, the anecdotes and curiosities which contributed to transform an ‘ugly duckling’ from the lowlands of the Bassa parmense into the splendid swan known by the entire world up until the present.
