Domani a Cambridge, e tra qualche giorno a Lugo, torna in scena il magnifico Rossini Re-Loaded di Mike Westbrook (e Orchestra): "The current revival of the work, for the Uncommon Orchestra, began in 2013 in the West Country. For a performance in Canada the Ottawa Jazz Orchestra had retitled it Rossini Re-Loaded, and that’s what we called our new version. In 2018 we reassembled for what turned out to be one of our most memorable concerts - a performance in the annual Rossini Festival at the Teatro Rossini in Pesaro, the composer’s birthplace. As if that were not enough excitement, after the Cambridge concert the Orchestra will be back in Italy on October 6th to present the opening concert of a Rossini Festival in the newly restored Opera House In Lugo, near Ravenna. How to follow a gig like that? The Great Gioacchino is sure to have a few more tricks up his sleeve."
