    The inaugural concert of Chigiana International Festival & Summer Academy 2024 is scheduled for 5 July at the Teatro dei Rinnovati, in the heart of Siena. It is linked to the theme of this year’s edition, Tracce, and the focus on György Ligeti.

    The protagonist will be the celebrated violinist Ilya Gringolts, one of the greatest interpreters of our time, professor of violin at the Chigiana Summer Academy from 2021, who will perform one of György Ligeti‘s absolute masterpieces: the Concerto for Violin and Orchestra.

    Together with Gringolts, the Orchestra della Toscana will be conducted by Marco Angius. The concert will also feature Ilya Gringolts performing Anahit, a lyrical poem dedicated to Venus, a 1965 masterpiece by Giacinto Scelsi, a visionary composer, an anachoretic figure, transversal and unique compared to 20th century Italian composers, very close to György Ligeti’s aesthetics. The concert will close with Béla Bartók‘s Concerto for Orchestra, one of the most famous scores of 20th century music.
