The Great Opera Arias Concert
About
The Great Opera Arias Concert invites visitors to experience the finest Italian opera in the historic Palazzo Poli, a 17th‑century palazzo overlooking the iconic Trevi Fountain. The performances are delivered by the I Solisti dell’Opera Lirica di Roma—a string quartet with a soprano and tenor—starring works by Puccini, Verdi, Rossini, Vivaldi, and Mascagni. Audiences enjoy intimate acoustics, a breath‑taking view of the Trevi Fountain from the balconies of Sala Dante, and complimentary exhibitions that open for a brief period before each concert. Whether you are drawn by the thrill of bel‑canto or simply seeking a memorable evening in the heart of Rome, this venue offers an unforgettable blend of music, history, and stunning city vistas.
