100 Cellos Live in DUBAI 2022

Free event

March 25, 7pm (GST) | Dubai Millennium Amphitheatre
Mrch 26, 7pm (GST) | Dubai Millennium Amphitheatre

Born as an experiment in 2012, during the occupation of Rome’s historic Teatro Valle, 100 Cellos is an innovative ensemble of over 100 cellos founded by Giovanni Sollima and Enrico Melozzi. Sollima and Melozzi are composers, arrangers, conductors, and above all cellists, who skillfully alternate and have fun as conductors and soloists. The project, which has kept its original features of unpredictability and experimentation, welcomes professionals, famous soloists, students, amateurs, and enthusiasts, presenting a repertory that never ceases to amaze: from ancient music to modern and popular rhythms. It’s a winning formula Sollima personally has been experimenting with for over thirty years and 100 Cellos has made their own, bringing it to theaters and squares all over Italy, Europe, and the world. This is the spirit informing the workshop included in the Expo 2020 Dubai calendar of events, which will promote a radical and fluid artistic creativity that everyone, regardless of age and background, can contribute to in order to create music that belongs to all.
