Gulf Network

On Sunday, 29th September 2024, the 2024-2025 'VIP Classical - Cultural Music Circle' season opened at Dubai Opera Studio. The evening featured performances by Italian maestros Giuliano Mazzoccante (Piano), Riccardo Zamuner (Violin), and Ludovica Rana (Cello), marking the rebranding of this prestigious series, organized by SAMIT Event Group under the auspices of the Embassy of Italy in the UAE.

The program featured a blend of classical and contemporary compositions, including masterpieces by Beethoven, Rachmaninoff, Mendelssohn, and acclaimed contemporary American composer Alexey Shor, a leading figure in modern classical music. A highlight of the evening was the UAE debut of Kleine Erzählung (Mică poveste), a composition by H.E. Dr. Arthur Mattli, Ambassador of Switzerland to the UAE and Bahrain, adding a unique touch to the performance.

H.E. Zhang Yiming, Ambassador of China to the UAE, honored the event with his attendance and shared his thoughts:

“Culture is one of the most important ways to connect people, regardless of language, skin color, or religion. Music has the power to unite people, and events like tonight’s are crucial for promoting cultural harmony. I appreciate SAMIT Event Group’s efforts in promoting diverse cultures here in Dubai.”

Esteemed partners, including Capital Club Dubai, Rixos Premium Dubai, and Music Instrurent, played a key role in the event’s success, enriching Dubai’s cultural scene.
