2018Ravello Concert Society

XXXIII Concert Season

CHAMBERMUSICON THE AMALFICOAST

A paradise high above the Amalfi Coast whose many facets of beauty are composed of medieval ruins, breath-taking views and luxuriant gardens overlooking at the sea. Lord

Byron would have loved it. Wagner was enthralled by its gardens and vistas. Gore Vidal called it home for several months each year. Ravello is an utterly-romantic spot, a pocket-sized paradise perched on a rocky ridge, more than one thousand feet above the sea. Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone with their ravishing gardens and historical assets, the Cathedral with its world known medieval ambones and mosaics and the numberless little chapels scattered along the streets and steps are all part of Ravello: offering its romantic, otherworldly atmosphere to tourists coming from all over the world. In this evocative atmosphere the Ravello Concert Society (RCS) concert series is a traditional and well-established date, which over the years has delighted thousands of visitors with a wide range of performances by soloists and chamber music groups. The “Princess Concerts”, organized to commemorate the visit of the Princess Maria José of Savoy who came to Ravello in 1933, was the first music festival to be promoted by the Ravello Concert Society. Since then, RCS has produced over two thousand concerts, featuring more than 800 musicians. In this way it has developed a growing local, national and international reputation as an arts promoter, offering events with a promise of great music in casual but stimulating environments, with top-flight musicians, an ear for contemporary music and refreshing concert formats. RCS 33rd season of concerts kicks off on Monday 26th of March with the Hadimova String Quartet performing the 12th stage of their multi-year projects of the complete series of quartets by Haydn. The same ensemble will be continuing the series of Schubert’s in 2018 (29th of October) and that of Beethoven’s (the 7th stage on the 23rd of April). The scope and diversity of the RCS repertoire are increasing every year: the 2018 programme features a total of 94 chamber music concerts. The wide-ranging programme will be rounded off by several well-established event series.Contaminations: music should bring us together and open our minds to discovery, innovation and reflection; it resists categorization. Afterwards, let’s go on contaminating with 12 events, which feature an appealing and original crossover of classic, jazz, modern and pop music. Here are some highlights:“A Guitar in frack: Domenico Modugno and ‘900 Neapolitan songs” with the guitarist Vito Nicola Paradiso on the 14th of May; on Wednesday 23rd of May an “All-Gershwin” Evening, thanks to the virtuosity of the two-piano duo Simone Sala - Giorgio Di Nucci; on Saturday the 30th of June the Musikanten Piano Trio plays the Beatles, featuring some of the most known and loved songs by the Fab Four; while on Monday the 6th of August the pianist Luca Mennella will get inspiration from the starry August nights and showcase the most famous piano pieces with the moon as protagonist. On October the 6th, Paccagnella & D’Aniello cello and piano duo will be on stage with “A touch of Latin” to celebrate the Latin origin-music, with a repertoire from De Falla and Guastavino, to Piazzolla and Chick Corea, passing through Ginastera and Villas-Lobos.The cycle of Theme evenings, devoted to various classical composers: there will be three recitals on Beethoven’s masterpieces (one by Raffaele Maisano on the 30th of April and two by Giuseppe Maiorca on the 26th of May and the 4th of November), two on Schubert (27th of April and 10th of September) and one on Debussy, Schumann, Bach, Dvorak and Rameau respectively on the 19th of May, 9th of June, 24th of

September, 17th of October and 2nd of December.Two-piano performances: as in the past years, they will be hosted in our new recital hall, the Ravello Art Center, the former Grand Caruso Wine Cellar, very close to Ravello main square, about 50 m from the parking and 30 m from the bus stop. Just to cite some of the 8 scheduled shows: the recital by Angione-Finamore, with music from the great ballets by Čajkovskij, Stravinskij and Prokofiev on the 9th of May and the concert by Raffaele Maisano - Mattia Mistrangelo on the 13th of October, with a celebration of the student protest of 1968 on the occasion of its Fiftieth Anniversary.Tea Time Concert Series: All Sundays, from November the 4th until December the 2nd, complimentary tea, cookies and savoury snacks are served in the Victoria Restaurant (in Rufolo Street, just round the corner on the right of Villa Rufolo entrance) starting from 4:30 pm until 5.30 pm while the concert begins promptly at 6.00 pm.There are places in the world where, even if you don’t want to, you would bump into. On the contrary there are others so hidden and remote that you would struggle to get to. There are crowded, noisy places that would bring you into isolation; and there are others so silent and quiet that invite you to pleasantly mingle with people. There are places which are fully-equipped, but cold and impersonal and others where any single stone would reveal history and traditions in a cosy and intimate atmosphere. If you are looking for such a treasure and rare venue, you’ve got it: the Annunziata Historic Building, our main recital hall, is one of these places! It is located on the borderline of Villa Rufolo Park and, with its world famous domes, it has been since ever the landmark of Ravello and its Music Festival. The Annunziata was built in 1281 by Fusco noble family and later became part of the Rufolo family estate. In 1851 Villa Rufolo was bought by Sir Nevile Reid, a Scottish botanist. He restored the Villa to its antique splendour, adding rare plants to its gardens. A new restoration work was carried out in 1982-1983 bringing the Historic Building to its original Romanic style. Since then, the complex, with its two Recital Halls connected by a porch, has been used as location of our concerts. To coincide with the announcement of the new season of concerts, RCS launches the virtual ticket: an opportunity to listen to the live recording of a concert if you cannot attend or you want to keep the memory of it. Check on our internet site for further details.As in the past seasons, the concert’s start time from the 26th of March to the 11th of May and from the 17th of September to the 1st of November will be 7.00 pm, a definitely more suitable time to take advantage of the public bus service at the concert end, which is normally reduced in Autumn and Spring. The concerts from the 14th of May to the 15th of September will be performed at 09.00 pm, for concertgoers to have time to thoroughly appreciate Ravello and to enjoy our music, possibly after a nice dinner in typical Ravello restaurant. The tea time concerts from the 4th of November to the 2nd of December will start at 06.00 pm.There are around 100 events: ranging from chamber music to jazz contaminations, all experiences as spectacular as the environment we present and produce them in. Come and discover our impressing venues, cosy atmosphere and great acoustic in locations full of history and culture. At RCS there are always interesting, engaging music. In addition, there is always the chance to make new friends, meet the artists and escape from your to-do list for an hour or two.

ABOUT RCSThe “Princess Concerts” - organized to commemorate the visit of the Princess Maria José of Savoy who came to Ravello in 1933 - was the first music festival to be promoted by the Ravello Concert Society. Since then, RCS has produced about two thousand events, featuring more than 800 musicians in Ravello and on the Amalfi Coast. RCS has developed a growing local, national and international reputation as an arts promoter, offering events with a promise of great music in casual but stimulating environments, with top-flight musicians, an ear for contemporary music and refreshing concert formats. Thanks to the support of its audience, RCS became more and more well established and strong in order to guarantee a yearly planning of events as long-lasting as possible and not dependent on public funding. The music has touched the souls of thousands of listeners and we’ve helped artists connect with each other and with international audiences. At RCS there are always great musicians and interesting, engaging music. And, there is always the chance to make new friends, meet the artists and escape from your “to-do” list for an hour or two.

USEFUL TIPS ...How to reach Ravello by carwww.autostrade.itComing from NorthLeave the motorway A3(E45) Napoli-Salerno at Angri SUD gate following the indications to Costiera Amalfitana and Valico di Chiunzi pass (SP1 road). Coming from SouthOn A3 (E45) Napoli-Reggio Calabria exit at Salerno Centro and drive along the SS163 “Amalfitana” road. This is a very panoramic but winding road where traffic jams are frequent on week-ends and holidays. It is better then to continue on the A3 and exit at Nocera gate to reach Ravello through the “Valico di Chiunzi” pass.

By bus & taxiwww.sitasudtrasporti.itAmalfi (5 Km far from Ravello) is the main bus terminal. From Amalfi there are many connections to other towns of the coast: 1h 10’ to Salerno, 1h 40’ to Sorrento, 50’ to Positano and 25’ to Ravello. The bus timetable is available at the above mentioned web site and in all tourist info points on the Coast. A list of taxi drivers that have an agreement for special fares is available on the Ravello Concert Society web site.

ParkingWe suggest the “Piazza Duomo” public parking near Ravello’s main square.

On foot, trekking, climbing & MTBwww.movicoast.comIf you are staying nearby, you can also reach Ravello walking along the many footpaths which, starting from the coast, climb up to the village on a hill at 365m. Ravello is the starting point of several trails, which are part of a network of about 100 itineraries in the regional Park of Lattari Mountains. Some itineraries are also suitable for mountain bikes. A group of bikers is locally active: for further information write to [email protected].

Local productsThe “sfusato amalfitano” lemon is the most renown among the local products and the “limoncello” liquor is made by infusing the lemon peel in alcohol. During the concert intermission a free taste of “Ravello Concert Society Selection” limocello is offered by the local producer “I Giardini di Ravello” (www.igiardinidiravello.it).

RestaurantsOn the evening of the concert almost all restaurants in Ravello apply a 15% discount for concert ticket holders. An updated list is available on the Ravello Concert Society web site.

Concert locationsThe Annunziata Historic Building is located just beyond the Villa Rufolo Park: its world famous domes are the landmark of Ravello and its Music Festival. The Annunziata was built in 1281 by the noble family Fusco and later became part of the Rufolo family estate. In 1851 Villa Rufolo was bought by Sir Nevile Reid, a Scottish botanist. He restored the Villa to its antique splendour, adding rare plants to its gardens. A new restoration work was carried out in 1982-1983, bringing the Historic Building to its original romanesque style. Since then the structure, with its two Recital Halls connected by a porch, has been used for our concerts. Since May 2015 a new venue has been open: the Ravello Art Center at the former Grand Caruso Wine Cellars, dating back to the end of 19th cent. Very close to Ravello’s main square, about 50 meters from the parking lot and 30 meters from the bus stop, the Ravello Art Centre hosts all two-piano concerts.

Concert TicketsNumbered seats: Euro 27,50 (children under 16s Euro 15,00), fees included. It is preferable to book on the web: ticket collection will be at the venue box office that opens 30’ minutes before each performance. It is also possible to purchase tickets at the Ravello Arts Council Box Office in the main square and at the Tourist Information Office in Via Roma. Virtual Ticket: Euro 12,50 to download, when available, the concert’s live recording. Tickets are not refundable (except in the event that the performance is cancelled), but may be exchanged up to 24 hours before the event for a different concert. The right is reserved to substitute artists, to vary the advertised program and the concert location if necessary.

Free WiFiFree Wifi Service provided by the UK Company Purple WiFi Ltd is available inside the Annunziata and around the Box Office. Search for RCS Free WiFi and stay connected with your friends!

Live recordingsWe record all concerts for future CD release. The recordings are not designed to document perfection, but to capture the excitement of the live concert experience. If you have not bought a Virtual Ticket in advance, ask at the box office about the availability for the concert that you have just attended or write to [email protected] for past recordings.

Dress codeDon’t worry, you do not need to bring an evening dress in your baggage. Casual wear is the rule.

Concert & Museum entranceConcert tickets purchased on RCS internet site (www.ravelloarts.org) include free entrance to the Ravello Cathedral Museum.

... AND STEPS!The vertical cityTo reach the Annunziata you have to walk down (...and up) 91 steps from the Villa Rufolo main entrance. Another 90 steps downward will take you to a drivable road (Via della Repubblica). In case you booked a taxi, you can ask the driver to pick you up on this road at the end of the concert. Most of Ravello’s historical and artistic sites can be reached only going up and down by foot. We apologize, but the Amalfi Coast has been growing vertically over the centuries and that makes it so beautiful!
