Enchanting Musical Soirees
Enriching the program are three unmissable musical events that will accompany the summer in
Certosa with exciting notes and evocative atmospheres.
PIANO ESTENSE – DAWN PIANO CONCERT
Saturday, June 8th, from 6:00 am to 10:00 am
The magic of the dawn concert – part of the Piano Estense program – will envelop the gardens of
the Certosa di Ferrara. The first light of day will intertwine with the notes of the piano played by
young talents on multiple hands, in an immersive and evocative experience that will accompany
the spectators until 10:00 am.

CARMINA BURANA IN CERTOSA: SUGGESTIONS AT SUNSET WAITING FOR THE PINK
NIGHT
Saturday, June 29th, at 8:00 pm
The sunset will be the backdrop for an exciting concert with the chamber version of Carl Orff’s
“Carmina Burana”. Produced by the Conservatorio Frescobaldi di Ferrara, the concert will feature
an orchestra composed of two half-tail pianos, four percussionists, and a 60-element choir. The
synergy between the two sections will give life to a performance of great impact.
Entrance from
Viale della Certosa.
CERTOSA DAWN CONCERT
Sunday, July 7th, at 6:00 am
As tradition dictates, on the occasion of the Notte Rosa, a special event awaits music lovers at the
Certosa di Ferrara. The protagonist of the dawn concert will be the pianist Gile Bae, who will offer a
