The Concerto delle Radici in Chiozza will be a concert of classical music – with some arias by Giacomo Puccini, a composer of Lucca origins whose 2024 anniversary marks the centenary of his death – in collaboration with the Musica Arte e Cultura Association and the ASD of Chiozza, which will take place on August 24th during the feast of the Patron Saint San Bartolomeo, also the name of a locality in San Paolo, Brazil, with a massive concentration of Chiozza emigrants. During the event, for the twentieth anniversary of the Bank of Identity and Memory of Garfagnana, the volume “Castiglione and the Walled City: manual for a guided tour” and other publications by local history experts will also be presented.

Roots workshops will be organized and the emigrants present – or their descendants – will be rewarded with a ceremony organized by the Mayor.
