The Italian Cultural Institute of Chicago, in collaboration with the National Music Museum in Vermillion, present The Classical Mandolin: A journey through the history of the iconic Italian instrument, a live concert by Italian mandolin performer Carlo Aonzo. The program will present a selection of compositions for classical mandolin by European composers Filippo Sauli, Johann Sebastian Bach, Antonio Riggieri, and Raffaele Calace.

The concert is inspired by Antonio Stradivari’s Mandolino coristo (choral mandolin) dated 1680 and part of the Museum’s collection. This small mandolin is one of two surviving from the Stradivari workshop. Several patterns relating to mandolin construction survive in the Museo del Violino in Cremona.
