Dal 26 al 28 June 2026, il IX Ancient Music Festival celebrates art and history through the notes of the great masters of the past. In this context it comes to life “Dialogues in Harmony”, a concert that represents much more than a musical event: it is the result of a shared journey, born in 2024, which unites the Epila Festival and the Timeless Notes Festival in an increasingly solid and significant collaboration.

The concert is indeed a real one artistic co-production which features two reference ensembles in the panorama of ancient music: La Guirlande and Dolci Accenti Ensemble. United on stage and in the preparatory work, the two groups have built a relationship of trust over the years, esteem and above all consolidated friendship, which today represents the true heart of the project.

“Dialogues in Harmony” was born precisely from this relationship: not a simple meeting between musicians, but a process of shared growth that develops over time. The proof, travel, mutual listening and the search for a common sound become an integral part of the musical experience, until it flows into the final act of the concert.

The program moves in the repertoire of the first half of the eighteenth century, where the flute and viola da gamba intertwine their voices with balance and delicacy, giving shape to an authentic instrumental dialogue. The music of Johann Sebastian Bach, Martin Bitti, Johann Friedrich Ruhe e Jean-Marie Leclair they build a sound path in which stylistic differences become an opportunity for comparison and expressive unity.

South stage, the interpretations of Luis Martinez (baroque transverse flute), Daniel Cernuto (viola da gamba), Calogero Sportato (archlute and baroque guitar) e Joan Boronat (harpsichord) will spark an ongoing musical conversation, perfectly consistent with the spirit of the project.

What also makes this concert particularly significant is the institutional and cultural dimension of the collaboration: the synergy between the two festivals, started in 2024, has given rise to a model of shared work that overcomes geographical boundaries and is based on a common vision of ancient music as a meeting space.

The public will therefore be part of an experience that is part of a broader artistic and human journey. A path that demonstrates how music can become more than just performance, but relationship, collective construction and authentic dialogue.

Why, in conclusion, a concert lasts an hour. But what makes it possible begins much earlier — and continues long after the final applause.
