On the route of the masterpieces, conceived and curated by Anna Orlando on behalf of the Municipality of Genoa with Palazzo Ducale Fondazione per la Cultura, is a very rich museum network, in which each Genoese museum presents its own highlight, the most representative work, what truly every tourist – but also every Genoese – cannot help but discover and learn. An itinerary, or rather a route among the city's masterpieces, conceived on the occasion of the historic arrival of The Ocean Race, the most extraordinary and toughest regatta around the world which will arrive in Genoa at the end of June for its Grand Finale. An itinerary in about thirty stages that covers the whole city, from the historic center to the modern districts, from east to west: from the Ligurian Archeology Museum to the Museum of Contemporary Art, from natural history to oriental art, from the Lanterna to the Nazario Sauro Submarine, from ancient to modern to tell a story made of beauty, innovation, discoveries and wonders.

The "cultural" network will both open and close the itinerary - in perfect marine style - with some magnificent "guest masterpieces": The landscape with sheaves and rising moon from 1889 by Van Gogh displayed at Palazzo Ducale is the "starting point", and the landing place is the exhibition “Sinfonie d'arte”. Masterpieces in dialogue between Modena and Genoa, curated by Anna Orlando and Lucia Peruzzi and set up on the noble floor of Palazzo Doria Carcassi, seat of the Fondazione Carige, which hosts the paintings from the PBER Banca art collections.

Among the many proposals scheduled at the end of June in the setting of Piazza della Vittoria, an evening entirely dedicated to "Made in Italy" music could not be missing! The appointment is for Wednesday 28th June. The five young winners of the Power2Music contest organized by Pulsee Luce e Gas, the digital brand of Axpo Italia, sponsor of the Municipality of Genoa, will take the stage first. Curious to know the name of the guest star? Ok, let's give you some clues: it's a female duo that has been treading the stages for years with a charge of energy and sensuality. They are two sisters: one blonde, the other brunette. guessed it? Yes, it's really them: Paola and Chiara are coming to Genoa!

 

The two Lezzi sisters will unleash the audience from 10pm by staging "Paola & Chiara Per Sempre", a tour that follows the release of the new recording project "Per Sempre", anticipated by the single "Furore" - in competition at the 70th edition of Sanremo Festival - and the song "Mare Caos". The album is full of unreleased collaborations and duets: from Emma to Elodie, via Jovanotti, Gabry Ponte, Noemi and Max Pezzali. The show - as the artists promise - will reflect the three souls of the duo: rock, latin and disco. In short, an electrifying show to be experienced that will make you sing and dance for two hours!

 

The live performance of the five young talents winners of the "Power2Music" contest

 

At 21, before the Paola&Chiara show, space for the young talents of Italian music. In fact, the five winners of the "Power2music" contest will take to the stage: a contest with a high social impact launched by Pulsee Luce e Gas, the 100% digital brand of Axpo Italia, which supports the talent of young and creative people in the world of music, one of the latest innovations in high definition sound. Among the five youngsters, also the Genoese doc Carlotta Rosini; with her, also Keyra (born Annapaola Giannattasio, from Salerno), Disteso (Davide Distaso, born in Trani but always lived in Barletta), Viscardi (Vincenzo Viscardi, from Vico Equense) and Vima (Vincenzo Mugavero, from Caltanissetta). The contest will lead to the release of an EP5 containing the five winning songs, produced in "dolby atmos", an innovative immersive audio technology. Also participating in the quality project was Andro, keyboardist, producer and programmer of the famous Italian band Negramaro, who met the winners of the contest before recording the songs in one of the creative coaching sessions to refine their musical productions.

 

The task of starting the great evening (at 20.30) and concluding it (after the performance of Paola&Chiara) falls to DJ Robbi Rocca, who will make the piazza dance and jump to the tune of the most popular commercial music of recent years. The DJ set will resume after Paola&Chiara's performance. Robbi Rocca, during his career, has participated in various musical events, public and private events and evenings in the best discos nationwide. In 2015 he participated in a very important musical project in terms of recording called 3PEAKS, creating the tracks MoetFriendzone, Mostra and Leave Me. In 2017 he is the author of the Remix of Oye Senorita for Plastik Duck and in 2018 of the Remixes of Gala, Danijay, Giusy Ferreri and Demi Lovato
