Presentation

By the light of lanterns, the abbey is unveiled at nightfall, and through musical breaks offered here and there throughout the evening, Il Buranello takes the audience into a dreamlike world where ancient music, storytelling and heritage come together in dialogue.

Voices and baroque instruments resonate throughout the abbey, the scent of Christmas tea wafts through the air and visitors are transported at their own pace into a tale of mystery and festivity.
