The performance will feature 12 solo singers, two pianos, and harmonium in an original composition that faithfully reproduces the composer's intentions. The "Little Solemn Mass," which Rossini called "the last mistake of my old age" in his later years, is an ambitious work in which Rossini, who had retired from the forefront of opera, attempted to approach the truth of his own music through a sincere confrontation with religious music. The worldview of the intersection of the sacred and the secular, created by his deep insight into the ordinary text of the Mass, is vividly portrayed by an elite 15-member ensemble composed mainly by Hiroya Aoki. This will be an extremely rare opportunity to unravel the musical truths discovered by a rare master musician. Supported by the Rossini Society of Japan, this performance will provide a fulfilling time for the audience to experience the depths of the work. Preschool children are not allowed to enter this performance, so please fully enjoy the sophisticated musical space for adults.
