Tones on the Stones 2022
Tones on the Stones is a special festival that provides a permanent theater surrounded by nature and obtained from a disused quarry. A stone theater located at the bottom of the Alps, an evocative location that highlights culture and sustainability in a space dedicated to innovation and performing arts.
Among the various events offered by Tones on the Stones, in 2022 there will be an extraordinary Rock Opera with immersive, fantasy-style sets entitled The Witches Seed. Exclusively at Tones Teatro Natura, from the genius of Stewart Copeland and with the voice of Irene Grandi, there will be a story of witches, persecutions, diabolical plans and illusions. Learn more about The Witches Seed.
Tones Teatro Natura's season will be inaugurated on 15 July with a major special event, the interactive show entitled Legend by the CM Orchestra Rhythms & Drums directed by Andrea Pollione, with creative direction by Federico Cautero (4DODO) and artistic and technical direction by Claudio Mazzucchelli. On stage, an impressive 56-piece ensemble with orchestra, rhythm section, solo voices, and choir will perform an eclectic repertoire that starts with Beethoven and arrives at Bruno Mars, passing through the Beatles and Queen, without neglecting 70s dance. A concert that will be a true audio-video experience, thanks to the images, light design and 3D videos created with cutting-edge self-generating multimedia solutions to fully experience the beauty of the theatre. The evening, presented by actor Daniele Monterosi, will be a special moment for the Tones on the Stones Foundation, which wants to celebrate this important milestone with its audience, sponsors and supporters.
Tones Teatro Natura: Stone Theater surrounded by nature
Tones on the Stones was born in 2007 from the idea of the soprano Maddalena Calderoni, who sees the quarries overlooking the shores of Lake Maggiore and the Ossola valleys as majestic and spectacular stone theaters. Today the festival is a highly successful format that offers immersive, highly engaging and exciting experiences. International critics describe Tones on the Stones as one of the most interesting and innovative projects in Europe.
In 2020 Tones on the Stones Foundation launched the great new project Tones Teatro Natura, an environmental redevelopment of the former industrial site of Cava Roncino connecting and amplifying the rich opportunities that the area offers in terms of tourism, recreation and culture. What's the goal? Creating a permanent theater surrounded by nature.
Immersive shows such as musicals and operas, concerts with great international artists of pop, jazz, classical music, the festival Nexstones dedicated to new sounds and digital arts, environmental education are just some of the ingredients of Tones on the Stones, capable of providing a unique and unrepeatable cultural experience in a mountain area of rare beauty.
Do not miss the magic recreated by the most fascinating outdoor theater in Italy!
