Russian Culture Festival: PALACE ASSEMBLIES - Music Salon
At the beginning of 18th century after several years of study abroad, Russian tsar Peter The Great commanded the families of Russian aristocrats to host cultural assemblies in their palaces - events in the manner of France and Holland. Russian noble families were obligated to visit these events regularly, learn how to dress-up, talk, dance, play musical instruments, card games and drink coffee and wine in the European manner. It is in this way that the cultural tradition of palace balls and salons became an essential part of St. Petersburg life.
On Sat, Nov 3 , we would like to invite you to our assembly where we will recreate the atmosphere of Russian palace culture of the 18th and 19th centuries, tell intriguing and curious stories, treat our guests to light refreshments, and play delightful live music - popular classics, original and jazzy arrangements, and soundtracks from beloved Russian movies about the “olden times”.
The show will take place in the cozy vintage interior of Bauhinia Musik Haus and will be performed involving historic costumes and accessories.

7:00 阿尔图罗•托斯卡尼尼和翁贝尔托•乔尔达诺诞辰150周年音乐会 “Buon Compleanno, Maestro" - 150simo anniversario di Arturo Toscanini e Umberto Giordano
今年是两位意大利音乐大师诞辰150周年纪念：阿尔图罗·托斯卡尼尼和翁贝尔托·迈诺迪·玛利亚·乔尔达诺。乔尔达诺被誉为真实主义之父，托斯卡尼尼是乔尔达诺的挚友，也曾演奏过他早期最著名的作品。托斯卡尼尼通过如暴风雨般急切又严谨的风格，完整的表现了乔尔达诺希望在音乐中表达的情感。托斯卡尼尼大师终生致力于将美国乐团的水平提升到与意大利乐团同样的高度，为海外音乐艺术的发展做出了巨大贡献。十九世纪末，大师谱写了一些极少被演奏的中高音浪漫曲，将首次在亚洲演出。
Quest'anno si celebra il 150 ° anniversario della nascita di due grandi maestri della musica italiana: Arturo Toscanini e Umberto Menotti Maria Giordano. Di quest'ultimo, considerato il padre del Verismo, Toscanini ne è amico e interprete di diverse prime delle opere più conosciute. Toscanini riuscì, con il suo stile tempestoso, imperioso e preciso, ad esprimere pienamente le emozioni che Giordano cercava nella sua musica. Il maestro Toscanini dedicò la sua vita a rendere le orchestre americane di pari livello rispetto a quelle italiane, contribuendo così allo sviluppo dell'arte musicale oltreoceano. A fine Ottocento il Maestro compose anche delle romanze per voci medie ed alte di rara esecuzione, le quali saranno fatte ascoltare per la prima volta in assoluto in Asia.
由意大利驻华使馆文化中心、“阿尔图罗·托斯卡尼尼基金会”和罗马影城Luce中心联合主办，这场纪念演出通过短片放映、简短叙述，更重要的是两位大师的精彩音乐，重新回顾托斯卡尼尼和乔尔达诺之间的亲密关系。
Organizzato da Istituto italiano di cultura di Pechino, Fondazione Arturo Toscanini e Istituto Luce Cinecittà, questo spettacolo commemorativo ripercorre lo stretto rapporto tra Toscanini e Giordano con proiezioni video, brevi narrazioni, ma soprattutto la grande musica dei due maestri.
