Like every year in autumn, from 15th to 19th November Ravenna Festival presents the AUTUMN TRILOGY at the Dante Alighieri Theatre.
The programme features Il ritorno di Ulisse in patria and Didone e Enea nel giorno di Santa Cecilia, a dyptich representing the two sides of the Trojan war – and a recital dedicated to the timeless expressive power of a repertoire spanning the centuries: Polish counter tenor Jakub Józef Orliński, one of the undisputed protagonists of today's vocal scene, accompanied by the ensemble Il Pomo d'Oro.
