    This high-profile concert is a tribute not only to the mastery of Puccini but also to canto lirico in Italy, included on the official UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage list.  

    The event, made even more memorable by the presence of the highest government officials, will also masterfully represent the combination of past and future, tradition and innovation that inspired the motto “Roots in the Future”.
