Recently, at the iconic Sala Verdi of the Milan Conservatory, a remarkable concert featured our revised version of Andrea Luchesi’s Concerto in F for piano and strings. This revival, alongside works by Donizetti, Costantini, and Perosi, was a resounding success, met with enthusiastic applause from an appreciative audience.
Conducted by Maestro Giorgio Rodolfo Marini, and with Maestro Carlo Levi Minzi as the soloist, the performance by the Insubria Chamber Orchestra brought new life to Luchesi’s forgotten masterpiece. The audience was captivated by the elegance and depth of Luchesi’s composition, which, thanks to our careful transcription and revision, revealed a richness that had been overlooked for too long.
This event not only celebrated Luchesi’s contribution to the world of classical music but also demonstrated how important it is to re-evaluate composers who have been unjustly neglected by history. The applause and standing ovations confirmed that this was a long-overdue recognition of Luchesi’s brilliance.
