On Sunday, August 11 at 4:50 a.m., the picturesque Molo Audace will once again host its traditional dawn concert, a beloved fixture in the local cultural calendar. This year’s performance will showcase the delicate and evocative piano work of Sonia Cugini, a pianist and composer celebrated for her nuanced interpretations.
Cugini, a graduate of the Conservatorio di Padova, where she completed her piano studies in 1994, brings a refined touch to the event. Her career includes a notable stint with the ensemble Soliti Veneti, where she engaged with a repertoire of chamber music. Her musical sensibilities have been profoundly shaped by French composers such as Francis Poulenc, Emmanuel Chabrier, Maurice Ravel, and Claude Debussy, as well as the works of Russian luminaries like Sergei Prokofiev.
The concert on Molo Audace, a scenic spot known for its stunning views of the Adriatic Sea, promises to be a serene and inspiring start to the day. As the city sleeps, Cugini’s performance will offer a moment of quiet reflection and artistic grace, a rare and cherished experience for both locals and visitors alike.
