The Festival of Beauties returns to Gallura and, for the third consecutive year, chooses Arzachena, a symbolic town on the Costa Smeralda, for the first time ever in the churchyard of the Church of Nostra Signora di Bonaria in Liscia di Vacca. Tomorrow, Saturday, July 11, at 9:30 pm, the concert "Le Nuvole ei giorni" (Clouds and the Days) by pianist and composer Antonio Manca, a musician with a diverse background in concert performance, composition, and visual writing, will take place. The evening's focus will be a monographic program entirely dedicated to Ludovico Einaudi, one of the most renowned and internationally acclaimed contemporary Italian composers. His music, write the organizers, "combines classical rigor, minimalism, and contemporary evocations, and will shape a powerfully evocative concert, designed to engage with the allure of the venue hosting the event." The evening, sponsored by the Municipal Administration of Arzachena and included in the "Arzachena Eventi 2026" summer program, will open with the "Città di Sassari" Student Choir, conducted by Maestro Vincenzo Cossu, featuring a repertoire that ranges from famous international and Italian pop songs to Sardinian tradition. Conductor Manuela Muzzu will perform.
The Gallura stop represents the fifth event (in addition to the previews) of the ninth edition of the Festival delle Bellezze, a musical festival organized by the Insieme Vocale Nova Euphonia cultural-musical association and conceived in 2018 by Vincenzo Cossu.
