Castellammare di Stabia. The magic of Christmas finds new expression in the concert of the Coro Polifonico San Marco, which will be held on December 22 at 19:00 pm in the historic and artistic Church of Gesù e Maria in Castellammare di Stabia.
In an evening dedicated to music and art, the Coro Polifonico San Marco, directed by maestro Andrea Massa, promises to give unique emotions in one of the most evocative sacred spaces of the city. The concert's repertoire will range from classic Christmas songs to compositions that evoke the profound meaning of the holiday, in an atmosphere of sharing and introspection, to then conclude with a more lively section in "Gospel" style.
This event, promoted by the Lions Club Gragnano Valle dei Mulini and Castellammare di Stabia host, is not only a high-level cultural event, but also an opportunity to highlight the extraordinary beauty of the Church of the Gesù, witness to a history of almost four centuries and custodian of works of art of inestimable value.
The Church of the Gesù, with its single nave dominated by the majestic vault frescoed by Galloppi and the main altar that houses the painting of the Blessed Virgin of Refuge attributed to Luca Giordano, represents the ideal context for a concert that also aims to be an invitation to discover the local artistic heritage.
“With this concert we intend to shine a light not only on the holidays but also on our Church of the Gesù,” says the President of the local Lions Clubs. “It will be a journey through music and art to celebrate together the true spirit of Christmas.”
The event will be an immersive experience that combines the warmth of Christmas melodies with the baroque elegance that permeates the church, in a harmonious dialogue between music and architecture.
The concert is free to attend and everyone is invited to participate, to experience a moment of profound spirituality and admire the artistic riches that the Church of the Gesù preserves.
Don't miss this pre-Christmas event that promises to be one of the most heartfelt and attended cultural events of this end of the year in Castellammare di Stabia. An experience to share with family and friends, in the name of tradition and the rediscovery of our cultural values.
