Lakefront Opera: A Lyrical Performance at Garda’s Palazzo Carlotti

Every Thursday at 11:30 AM, Palazzo Carlotti opens its doors to a unique experience that blends classical music, local tradition, and cultural storytelling. In the intimate and art-filled halls of this noble residence, you will be welcomed by our artists in residence, the internationally acclaimed mezzo-soprano Ida Maria Turri and pianist Stefano Romani.

This weekly lyrical concert series showcases a diverse classical vocal and instrumental repertoire. Each week features a new program, spanning opera arias, lieder and chansons, solo piano, violin-piano duos, and piano four-hands. Designed to enchant both dedicated music enthusiasts and inquisitive visitors.

At the end of the performance, enjoy an aperitivo with a tasting of Garda olive oil, followed by a brief historical overview of the palazzo and the noble Carlotti family. This experience lasts approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes (45 minutes for the concert, followed by around 30 minutes for the aperitivo and villa's tour).
