Our commitment to supporting and enhancing culture
Once again this year, UniCredit proudly confirms its support as Main Sponsor alongside the San Carlo Theatre in Naples, a true institution of inestimable value for almost three centuries.
Commitment to the protection, support and enhancement of the various forms of art that make us unique on the international scene has in fact always been one of the bank's founding values.
Not only an active support in the production and promotion of the 2024/2025 theatre season, but also an active and concrete contribution in the realisation of social and educational projects: from creative listening workshops aimed at primary and secondary school children to projects for the access to employment of the youngest in the world of arts and entertainment at the Officine San Carlo, real creative forges in the area.
San Carlo Theatre: the 2025 season
The Teatro di San Carlo presents a 2024/2025 season full of musical appointments and events, with 12 operas, 5 ballets, 21 concerts, the fourth edition of the Piano Festival, and a chamber music series.
Opening the new season on 20 November will be Rusalka, the lyric fairy tale in three acts with music by Antonín Dvořák. Rusalka is one of the works by Jaroslav Kvapil, who was a young and little-known writer at the time of writing the opera, though later much celebrated in Bohemian theatre. It represents a sentimental love story set in an enchanted nature world with characters close to the Slavic folk tradition. It was this aspect that struck the Czech composer's sensitivity in choosing the opera the day after the successful The Devil and Catherine. The story takes elements from the fairy tale Undine by the German Friedrich de la Motte Fouqué and Andersen's The Little Mermaid.
