Bergamo, the picturesque Lombard city at the foot of the Alps, welcomes its visitors with its beautiful old town, enthroned on a hill, and immediately immerses you in bygone times. In honour of Gaetano Donizetti, born in 1797, the city’s most famous son, Bergamo celebrates “its” bel canto composer every year. The wonderful performances in the Teatro Donizetti, including many musical rarities, have always been renowned for their high musical quality and promise a very special atmosphere. This year, in addition to the lesser-known and perhaps all the more exciting works Chiara e Seragina, and L’ajo nell’imbarazzo, the program also includes one of his most popular operas: La Favorite.

Our tip: Supplement your Bergamo trip with a stay in glamorous Milan, which you can easily reach in an hour with your private transfer. The Teatro alla Scala, still one of the most beautiful temples of music of our time, is looking forward to your coming!
