Violinist Gennaro Cardaropoli, ICMA Young Artist of the Year 2022, performed last week with great success as a soloist during the season of I Pomeriggi Musicali at Teatro dal Verme in Milan, one of the most prestigious concert societies of the Lombard city. Gennaro played Mozart’s Concerto No. 5, the Turkish, technically flawless and with a real elegance of phrasing. At the Saturday afternoon concert, attended by ICMA General Secretary Nicola Cattò, he gave a sparkling, hyper virtuosic encore performance of Paganini’s variations Nel cor più non mi sento, achieving a real triumph.
