Bragan\u00e7a Classic Fest 2024
<\/strong>4th edition<\/p>

In this year of 2024, as we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the 25th of April, the BRAGAN\u00c7A CLASSICFEST International Music Festival continues its mission of democratic access to artistic excellence. Since 2021, it has brought to Bragan\u00e7a celebrated orchestras and musicians \u2013 such as the Vienna and St. Petersburg Chamber Orchestras, the Asturias Symphony Orchestra, violinists Esther Hoppe, Mario Hossen and Diana Tischenko, singers Lena Belkina and Julia Muzychenko, violist G\u00e9rard Causs\u00e9, clarinetist Pascal Moragu\u00e8s, among many other world renowned artists \u2013 for memorable concerts that have sold out to an enthusiastic and multi-generational audience.<\/p>

Starting on October 1st, International Music Day, and for two weeks, the 4th CLASSICFEST turns Bragan\u00e7a into the epicenter of classical music in Portugal, with an eclectic and exciting program, promoting the celebration of community life through the universal language of Music.<\/p>

Among the artists and ensembles present at this 4th edition, two exceptional artists stand out at the Opening Concert: the Samuil sisters \u2013 soprano Anna and violinist Tatiana \u2013 both highly awarded soloists in major international competitions, who will present in Bragan\u00e7a their latest discographic project \"Il Mondo Felice\" for the first time in Portugal.<\/p>

Other highlights of the 4th BRAGAN\u00c7A CLASSICFEST program are the concerts of two internationally renowned orchestras: The Paris Symphony Orchestra \"Consuelo\", one of the most audacious orchestral projects of recent years, which on October 5th will perform the extraordinary 6th and 8th Symphonies by Ludwig van Beethoven, thus continuing the complete Beethoven Symphonies cycle at BRAGAN\u00c7A CLASSICFEST, which began in 2023 with the 5th Symphony by the Asturias Symphony Orchestra. At the Closing Concert, on October 12th, the Venice Baroque Orchestra \"I Solisti Veneti\", founded in 1959 and considered one of the most prestigious baroque orchestras of the last decades \u2013 with an extraordinary career of over 6,000 concerts in about 90 countries and around 350 albums recorded for the best labels \u2013 will present a concert entirely filled with music by the famous Venetian composer Antonio Vivaldi.<\/p>

This 4th edition will also be marked by the celebration of the 500th anniversary of the birth of Lu\u00eds Vaz de Cam\u00f5es, with a diptych of concerts dedicated to the greatest poet of the Portuguese language by renowned ensembles, namely the Concerto Atl\u00e2ntico, directed by its founder Pedro Caldeira Cabral, and Sete L\u00e1grimas, under the direction of Filipe Faria and S\u00e9rgio Peixoto.<\/p>

There will also be tribute concerts to two great figures of Portuguese culture in recent decades: Ant\u00f3nio Victorino d\u2019Almeida, whose 70-year career we celebrate in the presence of the composer and pianist himself, in a Carta Branca concert with several guests. Ant\u00f3nio Mega Ferreira, whose literary work will be evoked with the interpretation of his favorite music, notably the famous cycle \"Pictures at an Exhibition\", accompanied by readings by Pedro Lamares and Filipa Leal, of an anthology of texts specially selected for this tribute by Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa, Gra\u00e7a Morais, Simonetta Luz Afonso, Guilherme d'Oliveira Martins, Margarida Pinto Correia, among others.<\/p>

And, last but not least, a highlight on the concerts of the Schostakovich and Juventus Ensembles, featuring renowned musicians and young talents, performing works by great composers: from Mendelssohn to Dvo\u0159\u00e1k, from Beethoven to Schostakovich.<\/p>

In addition to the nine concerts of this 4th edition, BRAGAN\u00c7A CLASSICFEST continues its important educational and cultural awareness axis, with masterclasses and meetings, with the participation of the artists present at the festival and especially aimed at the musicians and students of the city and region.<\/p>

A significant hallmark of BRAGAN\u00c7A CLASSICFEST, since its 1st edition, is the realization of concerts in venues of great heritage value, as will happen in 2024 at the Churches of S\u00e3o Francisco and Santa Maria, in a healthy cross between Music and the Historical, Cultural, and Architectural Heritage of the Bragan\u00e7a territory.<\/p>

Thus, this 4th edition continues the path of consolidating BRAGAN\u00c7A CLASSICFEST as a cultural event of excellence, on a national and international scale, contributing to the dynamism and prosperity of the region.<\/p>

We extend our heartfelt thanks to all those who make the BRAGAN\u00c7A CLASSICFEST International Music Festival possible, starting with the fundamental support of the Municipality of Bragan\u00e7a, the Municipal Theatre of Bragan\u00e7a, and the DSCH Musical Association, promoters and organizers of this commendable initiative, and the festival\u2019s patron, BPI\/Funda\u00e7\u00e3o \u201cla Caixa\u201d. We also thank the Directorate-General for the Arts, the Diocese of Miranda-Bragan\u00e7a, the media partner RTP Antena 2, and especially His Excellency the President of the Republic, for the High Patronage once again granted.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
