About this Event
The Dante Society of Edmonton celebrates the 760th anniversary of the birth of Dante Alighieri with a piano recital by Emilio De Mercato.
In honour of the "Supreme Poet" and as a tribute to Italy, Emilio De Mercato will be performing Franz Liszt’s “Après une lecture du Dante”, and “Sonetto del Petrarca No. 104.” This transcendent diptych, closely relating to De Mercato’s Italian origins, is preceded by the treasured Kinderszenen by Robert Schumann, and followed by Modest Mussorgsky’s monumental Pictures at an Exhibition.
This concert marks the opening of Emilio De Mercato's 2025 Piano Tour, with stops in different Canadian cities, leading up to his debut in New York at the Carnegie Hall, in May.
Refreshment to follow.
