Concerti d'estate 2026 – tra cielo e terra (Summer Concerts 2026 – Between Heaven and Earth)

The Summer Concerts 2026 at the Monastery of San Pietro in Lamosa offer an extraordinary opportunity to immerse yourself in Renaissance music within a suggestive and historically rich setting. The Saturday, July 25th event presents a fascinating musical dialogue between two seemingly distant instruments: the organ and historical percussion. This sonic encounter, with its evocative title ‹Between Heaven and Earth›, creates a unique conversation where formal organ writing intertwines with the rhythmic pulse of percussion, generating timbral and dynamic variations that capture the essence of Renaissance polyphony. The organ, masterfully played by Luca Scandali, dialogues with the historical percussion of Mauro Occhionero in a program spanning from masters like Purcell, Praetorius, and Attignant to lesser-known but equally fascinating composers. The 70-minute concert is not merely a musical performance but a true collaborative action where each instrument plays a fundamental role in weaving Renaissance dances in a singular sonic dialogue. An immersive experience where the monastery's natural acoustics amplify the magic of Renaissance music, creating an atmosphere that transcends mere listening: a sensory journey between the sacred and the profane, between heaven and earth. **Practical Information:** - **Date and time:** Saturday, July 25, 2026 at 21:00 - **Duration:** 70 minutes - **Admission:** Completely free - **Guided tour:** Available one hour before the concert (20:00) – discover the history and architecture of the Monastery before the performance - **Accessibility:** Event fully accessible to people with disabilities with appropriate facilities - **Parking:** Free parking near the Monastery **How to participate:** Entry is free without mandatory reservation, but we recommend contacting the venue to receive updates and confirm your participation in the guided tour (if interested). **Part of the festival:** This concert is one of the highlights of Summer Concerts 2026, a festival celebrating classical and Renaissance music at the most enchanting locations in the Lombardy Lakes region.
