Four renowned Italian musicians will present a live musical program at 7 p.m. Monday, March 14 at First Presbyterian Church, 97 South Franklin Street, Wilkes-Barre. Conductor, pianist, and composer Frederico Longo will be joined by violinist Domenico Masiello and pianist Michele Fazio in a performance of Longo’s Notte di Luce. Composed in Cremona, Italy in June 2020, this programmatic work in 10 “scenes” details the inner transformation of “Night of Light” from a lesser to a superior state of consciousness.
The program will also feature mezzo-soprano Mariella Guarnera performing works by Johann Sebastian Bach, Camille Saint-Saëns, Jules Massenet, and Andrew Lloyd Webber. Ms. Guarnera is a widely acclaimed vocalist with experience both on the concert stage and the opera hall. She has collaborated with well-known talent such as José Carreras and Andrea Bocelli.
