Orchestra Filarmonica Italiana live in Piacenza

Experience Orchestra Filarmonica Italiana live on September 20th

Orchestra Filarmonica Italiana will perform at Sala dei Teatini in Piacenza on September 20, 2026. The orchestra is recognized for its interpretations of both standard orchestral repertoire and lesser-known works, with a particular focus on Italian composers from the 19th and 20th centuries. They frequently collaborate with both established and emerging soloists, aiming to present dynamic and engaging performances.

The Sala dei Teatini, originally known as the Chiesa di San Vincenzo, holds significant historical and architectural importance within Piacenza. Constructed during the 17th century (specifically between 1618 and 1624) by the Theatine Order – hence its current name – it exemplifies Baroque architecture. The church was deconsecrated in the late 19th century following damage from flooding of the Po river, and subsequently underwent restoration to become a concert and exhibition space. Its interior features notable frescoes and maintains a distinct atmosphere conducive to acoustic performance. The building is characterized by a single nave and a façade designed by Bartolomeo Avanzini. It remains an important cultural landmark in the city, regularly hosting musical events due to its acoustics and historical context.
