VANESSA BENELLI MOSELL

Once again, the Accademia Chigiana hosts the young pianist Vanessa Benelli Mosell within the Micat Concerti in Vertice Season. This concerts is part of the Roll over Beethoven cycle, a project supported by the SIAE in 2019, which presents the chamber music of Ludwig van Beethoven interpreted by young talents, perfected at the Siena Academy. The program combines masterpieces of romantic and modern pianism, favoring the meeting of very different composers, but united by the same look towards the future and moved by the same spirit of innovation that made them approach the piano composition, each from their own historical and cultural context. There are nineteenth-century compositions represented by Beethoven, Medtner and Liszt, up to the present day with Stroppa, and passing through the twentieth century with Stockhausen, the author of which Vanessa Benelli Mosell is one of the leading interpreters.
