Toronto-based conductor Kerry Stratton leads the Orchestra internazionale d’Italia in its Canadian debut for a program of operatic arias and orchestral works largely celebrating the 150th anniversary of the birth
of opera composer Giacomo Puccini. Singers are yet to be announced, although Italian classical guitarist and recording artist Claudio Marcotulli will make his Canadian debut as soloist in Joaquín Rodrigo’s Concierto de Aranjuez. Other program highlights include Puccini’s orchestral work Capriccio sinfonico and premieres of two new works by Italian composers: Carlo Boccadoro’s Fasi lunari and Gianluca Podio’s Di Fedro il gioco nascosto.—Rick MacMillan
