Katia Ricciarelli at the Theatre

Gran Gala in Barga Vecchia this evening at the concert in the Teatro dei Differenti in honour of Puccini and Pascoli. Large crowds turned up to participate in the first visit to Barga of the soprano Katia Ricciarelli.

She was accompanied by her pianist Guilio Zappa and two artists who were no strangers to Barga and the Teatro dei Differenti, Stefano Gragnano who was treading these boards only a couple of weeks ago in Beckett's waiting for Godot and our very own Ida Maria Turri mezzosoprano.
