Summer Ravello Festival 2013

Following the great success of last year, the Summer Ravello Festival recurs again from June 29th 2013  with a rich placard of events: 70 days of planning, till September 7th 2013, and more than 40 proposed events, without counting the shows and the meetings of word, that enrich an articulated and international offer.

The Belvedere of Villa Rufolo, renewed also in the look and made even more elegant, will serve as frame to the most of the events. In the fascinating Sala dei Cavalieri, in the gardens loved by Wagner, they will find place, instead, the most secluded shows and the chamber-music concerts, whilst the Auditorium Niemeyer will be used in few prominent occasions.

The playbill will be inaugurated by an unpublished symphonic memory work for Lucio Dalla by Joe D'Onghia with the New Orchestra Scarlatti and the Vocal Ensemble of Naples, and it will range over from the symphonic music to the chamber one, from the jazz to the pop one, from the dance to the theater till the visual arts.
