Ambassador Marco Clemente of Italy addresses the audience at a concert inside the Ateneo de Manila University in Quezon City on May 7. The concert, organized by the Italian Embassy, featured rarely performed ballet music from the operas of Giuseppe Verdi performed by the Manila Symphony Orchestra. Verdi’s music is widely regarded as the “pinnacle of Romantic drama and passion in music.” PNA/AVITO C. DALAN
