🌍 Cultural Diplomacy, Youth, and the Power of Opera 🎶 Thank you to the @concordiasummit and all of today’s participants for an inspiring dialogue on how culture can bridge divides. Maestro Alvise Casellati spoke on opera as a universal language — a bridge between people, cultures, and generations. ✨ Tomorrow, that vision comes to life in Central Park at Opera Italiana Is in the Air: Sunset Serenade — a free open-air concert with Verdi, Puccini, Rossini, Mascagni, and the world premiere of Castles of Abruzzo by 17-year-old Juilliard composer Luke Soneral. Want a glimpse of what awaits? 🎥 Watch highlights from last year’s magical Central Park performance: youtu.be/Gk8Bf-yLCpo 📍 Naumburg Bandshell, Central Park 🕠 Wednesday, Sept. 24 | 5:30 – 7:00 pm 🎶 Free & open to all We invite Concordia attendees and New Yorkers alike to join us under the sunset — where the city itself becomes part of the music. ✨ #ConcordiaSummit #OperaItaliana #CulturalDiplomacy #SunsetSerenade #OperaForAll
