Torna quell&#8217;asse tra le due citta\u0300 di Milano e Torino inteso a valorizzare il nostro patrimonio culturale, che finalmente riprendiamo a condividere e a fruire insieme. E dopo l&#8217;edizione dello scorso anno, tutta italiana, tutta volta a valorizzare e impiegare i talenti del nostro Paese, per troppo tempo rimasti fermi a causa della pandemia, quest&#8217;anno il festival riguadagna quella dimensione e quella vocazione autenticamente internazionali che lo hanno sempre caratterizzato.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em>Il coinvolgimento di talenti dall&#8217;Europa diventa quindi simbolo di quell&#8217;apertura alla dimensione globale della cultura a cui siamo stati costretti a rinunciare nell&#8217;ultimo anno, ma della quale oggi sentiamo piu\u0300 che mai forte la necessita\u0300.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">&#8220;MITO SettembreMusica is back, brimming with music, musicians and ideas. Once again, the cities of Milano and Torino team up to showcase a wealth of grand cultural heritage, which at last we can share and enjoy after so much travail. In the wake of last year\u2019s festival, which the pandemic failed to put the brakes on as we turned our focus to artists and performers hailing exclusively from that great classical music hub known as Italy, this year MITO returns as a standard bearer on the international scene, the true hallmark of this one-of-a-kind music festival.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">The involvement of talent from all over Europe reflects the kind of global flavor and outlook \u2013 which we were forced to forsake last year \u2013 that a cultural event of such proportions symbolizes and strives for, now more than ever.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>To read about the history of the MITO SettembreMusica, click <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mitosettembremusica.it\/it\/festival\/storia\">here.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>This years theme is &#8220;<em>futuri<\/em>&#8221; (futures):<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">&#8220;<em>La pandemia ci ha costretto a concentrarci sul presente. Perche\u0301 per mesi il nostro futuro e\u0300 stato ipotecato, interrotto. In molti casi addirittura cancellato in modo drammatico. Non ci e\u0300 rimasto che vivere giorno per giorno, nell\u2019incertezza, esitando ogni volta che ci toccava fare previsioni, fissare impegni, muoverci verso percorsi articolati. Ci hanno soccorso, tra gli altri, gli artisti. E tra loro, in particolare, i musicisti.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em>La musica classica, per sua natura, riunisce l\u2019eredita\u0300 del passato e il respiro del presente; e li consegna al futuro.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em>Siamo ancora feriti dalla pandemia, non ci sono dubbi. Ma cominciamo a vedere una luce in fondo al tunnel. A questo, a condurci e ad accompagnarci verso il domani, vuole servire MITO 2021. Con fiducia e speranza.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">&#8220;The pandemic forced us to focus on the present. Because for six months our future was mortgaged, interrupted. In many cases, even erased dramatically. All we could do was live for the day, amid uncertainty, hesitating every time we set about making plans, scheduling appointments, and moving along once well-defined pathways. Among others who came to the rescue were the artists. And among them, musicians in particular.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Classical music, by nature, brings together legacies of the past and the quintessence of the present, as it bequeaths them to the future.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Sure, open wounds remain, the toll taken by the pandemic. But we\u2019ve begun to see the light at the end of the tunnel. And that\u2019s where an event like MITO SettembreMusica comes in \u2013 to help take us there, to guide us toward tomorrow. With faith and hope.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">__________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n<p><em>So dove sar\u00f2 il prossimo settembre, e voi?<\/em> I know where I will be next September, what about you?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<img width=\"350\" height=\"233\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/italian\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2021\/09\/violins-1838390_960_720-350x233.jpg\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/italian\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2021\/09\/violins-1838390_960_720-350x233.jpg 350w, https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/italian\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2021\/09\/violins-1838390_960_720-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/italian\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2021\/09\/violins-1838390_960_720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><p>Ciao a tutti!\u00a0 It is already mid-September, which I find sbalorditivo (bewildering).
