Chelsea District Library recently announced the return of Music in the Air.
Originally conceived as a way to make classical music accessible to the community without the barriers of cost, formal attire, and a need to sit silently in a concert hall, Music in the Air found an enthusiastic audience in Chelsea. The COVID-19 pandemic and its travel restrictions forced the last performance featuring Jacopo Giacopuzzi and his sister, Maddalena online. This year, the library is excited to welcome Maddalena Giacopuzzi from Italy to Chelsea on June 4 at 3 p.m.
Maddalena dazzled our virtual audience with her sparkling personality and incredible talent. Giacoppuzi has won first prize in several national and international competitions, was selected among 150 participants to take part in the prestigious Busoni International Piano competition in 2013, and has performed as a soloist and chamber musician in multiple major international music festivals.
Since February 2019 she has been on the piano faculty of the Conservatorio “G. Paisiello” in Taranto, Italy.
Do not miss this opportunity to hear Giacopuzzi showcasing classical masterpieces, undiscovered gems, and original compositions in a casual outdoor environment.
This performance is open to all ages and free of admission. In case of rain, the concert will be moved to the McKune Room of the Chelsea District Library.
