Saturday afternoon concerts, Teatro della Pergola, Researchers
The October/mid-April 'Turno B' programme is almost entirely booked up by season-ticket holders. The Institute has two season tickets (abbonamenti) in the stalls (Platea) for researchers only.
Those interested in attending a concert should contact the coordinator, Laura Puccio by email as of Monday, but no later than Thursday afternoon of any given week. You should specify:
NAME:
Department:
Year:
Date of concert:
Telephone number/email address.
Up to 2 research students can go on any given Saturday. If there are more than 2 requests for a concert lots are drawn.
After confirmation by email, you can collect the ticket upon signature and cash payment of €10 per ticket from the office of Beatrijs de Hartogh, no later than Friday midday. It is very important that each ticket be returned and signed for promptly on Monday morning.
If you cannot attend the concert contact Laura Puccio as soon as possible.
With an extra ticket, 'Tessera Amica', attached to each season ticket, the (temporary) ticket holder can buy another seat for €10. Call Amici della Musica on 055 607440 to make a seat reservation.
Sunday evening concerts, Teatro della Pergola, Researchers & EUI members
EUI researchers and members can regularly buy half-price tickets for Sunday evening concerts (21.00 p.m.) and occasionally for Saturday afternoon concerts too (16.00 p.m.). Notification is circulated to an email list as soon as the Association has announced ticket availability.
Contact Linda Gilbert to be added to the list. The maximum number of tickets per person is normally 2.
Alternatively turn up at the Pergola 30 minutes before the concert and claim a ticket by showing your EUI identity card.
Note: if you arrive very early you may well be allotted a numbered seat; otherwise, you get an unnumbered ticket, and must wait until the houselights go down to take up any vacant seat.
N.B. Always queue at the right-hand side of the Theatre's ticket office.
