The special tribute concert to Ezio Bosso, I'm not afraid (Io non ho paura), returns to the Basilica of San Petronio on the fourth anniversary of his death. The title of the concert, Io non ho paura, comes from Ezio Bosso's String Quartet No. 2, which will be performed in the version for string orchestra. The stage set up in the Basilica will feature the Buxus Consort Strings Orchestra led by Relja Lukic, and the concert will be preceded by a speech by Alessandro Bergonzoni on the theme of peace.
Four years ago, on 14 May 2020, Maestro Ezio Bosso, a composer of Turin origin who worked to open up the world of classical music to everyone, in the name of a universal idea of music as a shared meeting space between performers and audience, passed away in Bologna.
