Note from the Host: "Join us for an unforgettable musical journey dedicated to Christmas, as soprano Natalia Pavlova, Persian cellist Nasim Saad, and organist Alessandra Ciccaglioni draw you into a world of sacred vocal and organ music from Italian and German baroque to the present.
"This performance will be broadcast from the beautiful historical Church of St. Alphonsus Liguori in the center of Rome – a titular church dedicated to cardinal priest St. Alfonso, it is one of the rare examples of neo-Gothic architecture and one of the last papal churches in Rome. Below the mosaic hangs the icon of Our Lady of Perpetual Help, known throughout the world, which was produced in Crete in the 14th century.
"We will perform the music of J.S. Bach, very rare arias from Italian baroque music by A. Scarlatti, A. Vivaldi, A. Caldara, N. Porpora, as well as Ave Maria by C. Saint-Saëns. Christmas arias and songs by C. Franck and F.X. Gruber and contemporary pieces by Iraida Yusupova and Giovanni Sollima!"
The livestream will take place at 9pm Central European / 12pm Pacific.
