Il Redentore ist jenes Fest, zu dem die Venezianer eine ganz besondere Beziehung haben und bei dem dank des nächtlichen Riesenfeuerwerks, das Tausende Besucher anlockt, auch der touristische Aspekt nicht zu kurz kommt. Es findet immer am dritten Sonntag im Juli statt, jenem Tag, an dem die Heiligen Messen und die Gottesdienste im Beisein des Patriarchen zelebriert und die Prozession durchgeführt werden. Der wichtigste Moment ist jedoch sicherlich die Nacht von Samstag auf Sonntag: Auf der unvergleichlichen Bühne des Bacino San Marco (Wasserfläche zwischen Markusplatz, Insel S.Giorgio und der Salute-Kirche) erzeugen Lichtreflexe und Lichtspiele ein Kaleidoskop von Farben, das sich von den Kuppeln und Kampanilen der Stadt in fantastischer Weise abhebt. 19.

Musica a Palazzo is a cultural association that was founded in 2005 with the desire to make Palazzo Barbarigo Minotto a place where to meet, experiment and to gather in order to spread and broaden the knowledge of opera culture. This is how the Musica a Palazzo ensemble conceives the chamber opera: the traditional setting of opera in the theatre is replaced by a stage that fits in perfectly with the scenery: every act of the opera takes place in a different hall of the palace, the magnificent baroque furnishings of which are a natural complement to the set design. The originality of the direction is represented by the interaction between the singers, the instrumentalists and the audience, breaking down any kind of barrier between them, giving the viewer the thrill of experiencing the opera from within. This feeling is enhanced by the skilful use of all-round stage space. LA TRAVIATA by Giuseppe Verdi Melodrama in three acts, libretto by F. M. Piave Every Monday, Thursday and Saturday IL BARBIERE DI SIVIGLIA by Gioacchino Rossini A light-hearted melodrama in two acts, libretto by C.

"A new ensemble on the Italian and international concert scene!" This is how, in 1987, the Interpreti Veneziani made their debut, immediately gaining a reputation for the "...youthful exuberance and all-Italian brio characterising their performances". A datum point in a worldwide musical panorama, the Interpreti Veneziani reached their XXIV Concert Season in Venice, which includes more than 60.000 viewers every year from all around the world. The great talent of the musicians that compose this group, permits them to interpret the Baroque, Classical and Modern repertory with virtuosity, involving emotionality and interpretive variety, the keys to success from the audience and the critics, obtained in every concert. Their important achievements include appearances in the Melbourne Festival, in the Bayruth Festival and concerts at Stockholm's Royal Palace, participating in the World Vision telemarathon at the Kirov Theatre to mark the "reinstatement of the name St. Petersburg", a concert at the Osaka Symphony Hall in live broadcast for the Japanese radio, concerts at the Tokyo Suntory Hall and Kjoi Hall. United States, Japan, Canada, Latin America alternate every year in their calendar with concerts in the most prestigious halls. This year they were they main characters in the tour in South America, which touched the most important theatres in Peru, Ecuador, Panama, Costa Rica, Chile and Argentina, in a tour in Brazil and one in the USA. Next year they’ll return to Japan, Australia and Canada.  The Interpreti Veneziani's recording activity includes the production of the first compact disc with the music publishers Musikstrasse containing Giuseppe Tartini and other 18 compact discs recorded with In.Ve.Nice Sound.

Das Salute-Fest (La Festa della Salute) ist aufgrund seines aufrichtigen religiösen Empfindens, das die Venezianer ins Gedächtnis rufen und demonstrieren wollen, sicherlich das am wenigsten “touristische“ Fest. Auch dieser Festtag erinnert, wie jener des Redentore, an eine Pestepidemie (jene der Jahre 1630-31) und in der Folge an das vom Dogen abgelegte Gelübde, um die Fürsprache der Jungfrau Maria zu erhalten.  Noch heute gehen Tausende von Bürgern am 21. November am Hochaltar der stattlichen Salute-Kirche (Chiesa della Salute) vorbei, um der Jungfrau Maria die Ehre zu erweisen und das jahrhundertealte Gefühl der Dankbarkeit, das die Venezianer gegenüber der Gottesmutter empfinden, zu bezeugen.
