GIOVANNI ZENATELLO AND THE OPERA IN ARENA: A GREAT VERONESE STORY
History of OPERA at the Verona Arena
A great story of passion unites the ARENA OF VERONA, with life and choices of a young man from Verona, who migrates to America to become famous. And he returns to make it happen, on 1913, with the first Opera in the Arena: AIDA!
These are the contents of the elegant “History of the Opera in the Arena”, with professional Artists at the prestigious Hotel ACCADEMIA****S, still managed by the descendants of the great Tenor Giovanni Zenatello, in the heart of the city.

THE CONTENTS
Many great stories are born from a dream, an idea, a great passion; and this is one of those.
Presented for the first time in 2023, this pleasant and elegant “Musical Conversation” is conducted by a passionate Actor, an expert Master pianist, and two professional Singers. The story is about a young lyric singer from Verona who, at the end of the 1800s, follows his passion and migrates to America, where he becomes famous. He then puts together ideas, passion, and money for the benefit of his city.
The Arena di Verona Opera Festival was born, in fact, on August 10, 1913, when the famous tenor from Verona Giovanni Zenatello, on the occasion of the centenary of the birth of Giuseppe Verdi, entirely at his own expense, staged in the Arena the most spectacular of Verdi's Operas: Aida, made even more grandiose by the spaces of the Roman amphitheater dating back to the 1st century A.D.
But the story, the passion, the foresight of Zenatello, do not begin and end here: there are many things to tell and make heard. Like the discovery of the great Maria Callas, who lived for a long time at the prestigious Hotel ACCADEMIA****S, in a room that still exists today, furnished as it was then. Location still managed by the Zenatello family, descendants of the great tenor.
And precisely within those walls, you will have the unique opportunity to know this great, passionate, and exciting story.
An unforgettable experience, thanks to the skill of the Artists and the history of the Location.
