Full description

Santa Monaca is a small church dating from the fifteenth century where professional singers, accompanied by a grand piano, perform Italian opera by composers such as Verdi, Rossini, Puccini, Bellini and Mascagni. The compact space gives a close view of the performers, and reviewers like that it offers a short taste of opera without a full-length production.

The ticket also includes a printed programme and a visit to Nico Paladini's painting The Battle of Anghiari, inspired by Leonardo's work, with an explanation. An interval allows wine to be bought, so bring a little cash.
