Giovanni Allevi
Sunrise Tour

Taormina Greek Theatre

August 24th 2013, 9.30pm

 Giovanni Allevi is a young Italian pianist and composer.
… a pianist without a label… the most difficult to classify the genre of. The easiest thing is just to remain enthralled by his fiery style, with its torrential and refined connotations on the road to final maturation. Giovanni Allevi is a musician full of inventiveness and daring, with a bright future at the keyboard to be explored: above all, on the stage, in concert, he reveals the painstaking application of his sonic research and the pursuit of technical perfection and depth. (Enzo Gentile)

Lola Astanova

Taormina Greek Theatre

August 16th 2013, 9.30pm Some absolutely love her. Others criticize nearly everything she does. But one thing is certain: Lola Astanova is a phenomenon. A virtuoso often described as “firebrand” and nicknamed “the million-dollar pianist”, Lola is hardly your stereotypical classical musician. Add to that her interest in fashion, film and pop (yes, pop!) music, and it becomes obvious that no one traditional definition is sufficient and accurate enough to describe this unique artist.
(source: lolaastanova.com)

Lola Astanova will play Ouverture to Candide and Symphonyc dances west side story by Leonard Bernstein, Alborada del Graciosa by Maurice Ravel  and Rapsodia in Blu by George Gershwin.
