Traetta Opera Festival in Bitonto

Overview

The Traetta Opera Festival in Bitonto, Italy, features a series of musical and theatrical events. The festival includes the finals of two major vocal competitions at the Teatro Comunale: the fifth Caffarelli International Baroque Singing Competition and the twelfth Tommaso Traetta Lyrical Singing Competition, involving 132 participants from 23 countries.

Educational initiatives are a key component of the festival. From October 5 to October 8, the Teatro Comunale hosted the matinée series ‘Pulcinella e Tommasino alla scuola del Turchino’. Written and performed by Maurizio Pellegrini and Massimiliano Mastroeni, with Rebecca Maria Brindicci on piano, the production uses the character Pulcinella to teach primary school students about 18th-century Naples and the life of composer Tommaso Traetta.

On October 11, the festival hosted a matinée dedicated to showcasing talents from the Conservatorio di Musica ‘Niccolò Piccinni’ of Bari. This event was the second of three showcases designed to provide emerging artists with a professional platform. The program included a recital by pianist Gabriele Martino Di Cesare performing Beethoven and Liszt, a performance by Giulio Mareschi featuring works by Aleksandr Skrjabin, and a set by the Quartetto Diafora saxophone ensemble performing works by Astor Piazzolla and Caryl Florio.
