Imagine listening to the notes of a string quartet as the sun sets over the city, surrounded by the spectacular spires of the Duomo. This is the magic of Enchantment Evenings, staged every Thursday on the cathedral terrace. Musicians from the Giuseppe Verdi Conservatory will play the most delicate symphonies while the audience, seated on one of Italy’s most famous rooftops, watches the sun slowly disappear behind the Duomo’s marble spires.
