Roma Sinfonietta live in Crabas/Cabras

Experience Roma Sinfonietta live on June 28th

Roma Sinfonietta will perform at the Theater of Tharros in Cabras, Italy on June 28, 2026. The ensemble is recognized for its interpretations of both standard orchestral repertoire and lesser-known works, frequently focusing on 20th and 21st-century compositions alongside pieces from the Baroque and Classical periods. Their performances are characterized by a commitment to stylistic clarity and dynamic range, often incorporating chamber orchestra arrangements of larger works.

The Theater of Tharros holds significant historical importance. Originally constructed by the Phoenicians around the 7th century BCE, the site underwent substantial Roman redevelopment during the 1st century CE. The extant theater, largely dating from this Roman phase, was built into a natural hillside overlooking the Sinis Peninsula and could accommodate an estimated 1,500-2,000 spectators. Following a period of abandonment after the Roman era, archaeological excavations began in the early 20th century, revealing substantial portions of the ancient city of Tharros including the theater. Restoration efforts have been ongoing to preserve this important archaeological site which now serves as a venue for cultural events during warmer months. The setting provides a unique backdrop due to its historical context and coastal location.
