The Giuseppe Tartini Conservatory of Music of Trieste returns to the Quirinale: exactly one year after the performance for the official celebrations of Remembrance Day 2023, the Tartini String Orchestra will once again be among the events scheduled on Friday 9 February – on the occasion of Remembrance Day 2024 – in the presence of the President of the Republic Sergio Mattarella.
The institutional ceremony will be broadcast live on Rai1 from 10.55am and also on the satellite channel and on the web TV of the Chamber of Deputies; the String Orchestra of the Tartini Conservatory will perform, accompanied by the President of the Conservatory Daniela Dado with the Director Sandro Torlontano.
“Remembrance Day is an anniversary of particular importance for the history of the eastern border and of the city in which our Conservatory is based – say the Tartini leaders – in Trieste we want to cultivate the cosmopolitan vocation of our institution as a place for meeting, exchange and productive coexistence between international traditions and cultures.
It is no coincidence that we will be at the Quirinale with an Ensemble made up of 16 Conservatory students from 9 different countries, with an average age of 21″.
The String Orchestra is made up of 11 female students and 5 male students who perform without a director, enrolled in the Ensemble Music for Stringed Instruments class of the Conservatory, led by Alberto Franchin, and coming from Italy, Montenegro, Serbia, Bulgaria , Ukraine, Peru, Turkey, Slovenia and Belarus. The Adagio from the Quartet in D major op.8 n. will be performed at the Quirinale. 1 by Luigi Boccherini and pages by Ottorino Respighi, Italian and Sicilian from Suite n.3 ‘Ancient dances and airs'”.
The musical contribution of the String Orchestra will be an added value to the events at the Quirinale thanks also to the synergy of Federesuli, through its President Giuseppe de Vergottini, and by the National Association of Venezia Giulia and Dalmatia and President Renzo Codarin.
The Day of Remembrance was established in memory of the tragedy of the Italians and of all the victims of the foibe, of the exodus of the Istrians, Fiumes and Dalmatians from their lands after the Second World War and of the more complex story of the eastern border.
