Second appointment of the review "Pur bella la vita. Musiche nei luoghi storici di Pisa" organised by the Allievi and Alumni Associations of the Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna in collaboration with the Museo Nazionale di Palazzo Reale and the Department of Philology, Literature and Linguistics of the University of Pisa, Cátedra Antero de Quental.  The concert will take place on Sunday 8 May at the Museo Nazionale di Palazzo Reale at 4.30 pm. It will be possible to listen to Fernando Lopes-Graça's "Cançoes de Fernando Pessoa" for voice and piano with Silvia Regazzo, mezzo-soprano, Claudio Proietti, piano, poetry readings by Andrea Nicolini and a presentation by Valeria Tocco.

H.E. the Ambassador of Portugal in Rome Dr. Pedro Nuno Bártolo will be present. 

The music of the most important Portuguese composer of the 20th century is linked to the poetry of Fernando Pessoa, the greatest Portuguese poet of the 20th century, one of the most difficult to deal with musically.

This is a musical offering of rare value and execution, also due to the obstacles that Lopez Graça's music encountered during the regime, but of sure modernity sealed by a very personal style.

Admission is free.
