Liceo Sarpi il Liceo Manzù di Bergamo
Istituto Romero di Albino
Istituto Zenale e Butinone di Treviglio
Liceo Federici di Trescore Balneario

The students, during the school-work alternation passed in the theater followed by the festival’s education team in collaboration with the editorial group Sesaab and in the context of the PIC – Piano Integrato della Cultura da parte di Regione Lombardia (Lombardy Region’s Integrated Culture Plan) (Cantiere Teatro – Youth Education Program of the Donizetti Theatre), created some video contributions and some of these videos will be part of the show, others will instead be available on the social media profiles of the Donizetti Opera already in the next few days.

“Donizetti was a revolutionary of art, inventor of Italian musical romanticism – underlines the dramaturg of the festival Alberto Mattioli – always ahead of his time, genius creator of stories in which we still believe because they are emotional dynamite that explodes in the heart and the mind. To revolutionize the revolutionary, put it in contact with the contemporary, to explain that they are not old stories, but eternal stories, is the homework of the Festival. The “Donizetti Revolution vol.8” exists to tell the story that we can, and to tell why we will in this way: those who perform shows announce their shows while doing a show. An evening of words, notes, images, films and reflections with the Festival’s Artistic Director, Francesco Micheli, with some of the best voices that we will listen to in Bergamo, with video contributions thanks to the school-work alternation children. To explain that Donizetti was not a comforting icon of the past but a stimulus for the present, our contemporary that for two centuries has explained to us how we are and why we are that way. But also, to discover together with him is a show, a party, a joy. Revolutionary.”
