Alan Sciberras is performing a series of sacred and operatic arias in a lunchtime concert at the Augustinian monastery in Valletta today.

The programme includes sacred works such as Mozart’s Ave Verum, Stradella’s Pietà Signore, Rossini’s Cujus Animam and Adam’s The Holy City. The second part of the programme highlights excerpts from well-known operas such as Puccini’s Recondit Armonia from Tosca, Che Gelida Manina from La Bohème and Nessun Dorma from Turandot. He will also sing Verdi’s Dei miei bollenti spiriti from La Traviata.

The accompanying pianist, Sofia Narmania, will perform two solos, Mascagni’s Intermezzo from Cavalleria Rusticana and Verdi’s Preludio from La Traviata.

After the concert, visitors have the opportunity to enjoy a free guided tour of the chambers of the monastery which are adorned with historical sacred ornaments.

Proceeds from the event will go to the restoration project of the Augustinian monastery.

The concert is taking place today at noon at the Augustinian monastery in Old Bakery Street, Valletta. Tickets may be obtained from the venue itself half an hour before the concert begins. For more details, call 7968 0952 or send an e-mail to baroccomalta@gmail.com.
