A concert dedicated to Elias will be held on Tuesday 6 May 2025 at the Santa Chiara Auditorium in Trento.
The Centro Servizi Culturali S. Chiara, in collaboration with the Youth Choir of the Steiner School of Trento and the Orchestra Arcoiris di Trento, organises the "Concerto per Elias" on Tuesday 6 May at the Auditorium S. Chiara, dedicated to a 15-year-old boy, a great music fan, who died prematurely last August.
Elias loved music, many different genres, from classical to rap. He had studied clarinet, self-taught piano and had sung in the Youth Choir of the Steiner School in Trento until May 2024.
To remember him, the idea of organising a concert with his choir was born, accompanied by the Orchestra Arcoiris of Trento, formed for the occasion and composed almost entirely of musicians who knew him and who decided to enthusiastically participate in the initiative free of charge. The choir and the Orchestra will be conducted by Maestro Maurizio Postai, soloists Nadia Bortolamedi on clarinet and Michele Calzà on piano.
A concert to honor the memory of Elias and to live his presence in a spiritual dimension, difficult to know, but certain in its reality.
During the evening, particularly significant pieces for Elias will be performed, some only orchestral, others for choir and orchestra; pieces that he greatly appreciated and that he himself played and sang: W.A. Mozart - Concerto for clarinet and orchestra, KV 622;;; D. Šostakovič - Concerto NO. 2 for piano and orchestra, Op. 102 (2. Movement); W. A. Mozart - Lacrimosa (from the Requiem, KV 626); G. Fauré - Cantique de Jean Racine, Op. 11; A. Vivaldi - Gloria, RV 589 (1. Gloria in excelsis Deo, 5. Domine Deus, 6. Domine Fili unigenite, 10. Quoniam tu solus sanctus, 11. Cum Sancto Spiritu); G. Rathbone - Rejoice in the Lord always
