The concert La Balata della Genesi (poetry by Roberto Piumini and music by Andrea Basevi) will be held in the Ballroom of Palazzo Reale, an initiative curated by the Regional Secretariat of MiBAC for Liguria, organized as part of the initiative "Waiting for the Party della Musica " promoted by the Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Activities. The protagonists are the Young Singers of the Vocal Academy of Genoa who, under the direction of Roberta Paraninfo and accompanied by the pianist Giovanni Magnozzi and the reciting voice of Patrizia Ercole , present in this Cantata some episodes from the book of Genesis in a new and original version, founded on the interaction between different codes and levels of expression. In fact, music and words are combined with the power of images, with the large-screen projection of a sequence of works drawn from the history of art: frescoes, paintings, mosaics and printed engravings, created over the centuries by Italian artists and foreigners, become an integral part of the musical composition, divided into sections dedicated to Creation, Eden, Abel and Cain, Deluge .

Participation in the concert is free, subject to availability.
