Serenata Italiana

Legendary chamber music ensemble I Musici is turning 60 and bringing its celebrations to Wellington.

This famous Italian ensemble is one of the longest-running active chamber groups in existence and as part of their 60th anniversary ‘Celebration World Tour’ they make their first ever trip to our shores.

Proudly presented by Chamber Music New Zealand, I Musici’s Serenata Italiana takes audiences on a journey of the Italian serenade, featuring music by Rossini, Respighi and film composer Nino Rota (of The Godfather fame). The group plays with no conductor, achieving an unparalleled synergy between the musicians.
