In this special venue you will listen to Opera and Vivaldi music with instruments of the period, such as the baroque guitar and the theorbo. The voice of the soprano Paola Alonzi will bring you back in the XVII century, at the beginning of the Opera, when this kind of music was played inside Palazzo Doria Pamphilj.

The event is reserved for a small number of participants, during the private and exclusive opening of the apartment, home for amazing paintings and invaluable sculptures.
