    • Semenzato has a sweet and caressing timbre and her song is sensual, homogeneous, easy, always projected clearly, from the outside, from the lips. She especially stood out in the Italian pieces. Giulia's simple bel canto arietas had no secrets for her, she went through all the recesses of sentimental expression, from loving joy to disappointment and pain, always nuanced, light (in this sense, Alle mie tante lagrime turned out wonderful, with the guitar made a pure whisper next to her).

  • Recital at Festival of the Valle d'Itria

    Martina Franca
    Aug 2022

    • An awaited and important event is what the cycle "The song of the olive trees" represents for the Festival of the Valle d'Itria of Martina Franca. The last of this year, held on the first of August, was among the most successful ever: a perfect combination of musical care and adherence to the natural atmosphere of the chosen location, the splendid Masseria Palesi. The Duo protagonist of this special moment of pure Chamber Music was formed by the Soprano Giulia Semenzato (Voice well known for being a specialist in making exactly every nuance that the word and the music generate together with each other) and by the Guitarist Jadran Duncumb (heard here for the first time with equal applause for the completeness of the artistic Level). The choice of the Program included a path begun with the Apulian Mauro Giuliani (1781-1829): accomplice and interpenetrated the execution of the Six Cavatine op. 39, rendered in an excellent way both in terms of style and correspondence with the metric accentuations and textual signifiers; performance which did not lack the appropriate premise by voice by the Interpreters in support of the Program based on "migrant" musicians who then found consecration in foreign territory. The Concert ends with ovations for the Duo and this is right: we need to find ourselves in Quality and Respect for what we do. Music is sacrifice and for this reason the Concert of the first of August proved to be a good opportunity to reflect on what it means to "make sacred" something. To be taken as an example!
