IL MAGO PAPPANO  AND THE ORCHESTRA GIOVANILE DI ROMA WITH BEETHOVEN 8

What Beethoven took 20 minutes to say Bruckner is not enough even in two hours.

Thanks to the magic of Pappano and his magnificent orchestra he was able to turn baubles into gems …………sublime playing from totally involved players made one wish for just one second for one memorable melody from the superbly crafted themes.

Rushing back to my theatre to the Orchestra Giovanile di Rome directed by Vincenzo Di Benedetto ,for Beethoven 8th one was immediately struck by the difference between a master craftsman and a genius …………already got them a concert in Viterbo …………

Wonderful enthusiasm at S.Cecilia for Pappanos magic trickbut for the young enthusiastic players at the Ghione Theatre ….simply happy to party after such wonderful music making.
