approx. 90 minutes, without break

The Italian soprano Sandra Foschiatto, a master student of Katia Ricciarelli and Mirella Freni, is at home on major opera stages and concert platforms in Europe and Asia.

Together with the Pandolfis Consort Vienna she interprets the extremely rarely performed first version of the "Stabat Mater" from Luigi Boccherini. This haunting opus on the cusp of the Baroque and Classical periods is framed by other works by the composer, the 220th anniversary of whose death is being celebrated.

In his work, the seriousness and joy of life are inextricably linked. Because sensuality and contemplation are Siamese twins.

Once again this year, the ticket price includes a tasting of regional specialities.
