• The Serenissima Grand Ball - Palazzo Pesaro Papafava - 9.00 pm.
  Gala dinner & entertainment
  The Ball will be located in the authentic Venice, in a 14th century Palace, Palazzo Pesaro Papafava, with its precious gothic facade & its elegant quadriform gothic windows overlooking the canal of the Misericordia. The palace will be illuminated entirely with candlelights to create a memorable atmosphere. Based on a novel called La Dame aux camelias (1848) by Alexandre Dumas junior, which caused scandal due to the saucy theme (a story of the love life of Alphonsine Duplessis, one of the most famous Parisian courtesan of the time) and played in contemporary setting, La Traviata is among the most famous operas by Verdi. The authorities at La Fenice Theatre showed tolerance and gave their consent to the performance but insisted that it be set in the 17th century. Thus the unbridled effect of the contemporary chronicle vanished together with a potential attitude of the audience to identify with facts and characters. At its production in Venice at La Fenice Theatre in 1853 La Traviata was a failure; the chief blame for the fiasco appears to have rested with the singers, so much that later Verdi introduced major changes to adapt the parts to new singers. When the opera was brought forward again a year later at San Benedetto Theatre in Venice, the same city which had decried it as a failure acclaimed it a success. While composing the opera, Verdi adopts a new narrative technique, rather unusual for the melodrama of the period. In modern terms it is possible to refer to it as a flashback, or narration of events moving backwards, through the notes of the prelude at the beginning of the opera: a musical portrait of the female protagonist, in a condition of physical decline, while her mind wanders with nostalgia to the past vexed love relationship (it is the passionate solo «Amami, Alfredo» in Act 2) and to the lighthearted days of Parisian frivolity when their passion flared.
  
  9.00pm: Elegant cocktail with Gondolieri Folk
  9.45pm: Seated Gala Dinner wines included
  11.00pm: Performance of selected arias from the opera La Traviata by Giuseppe Verdi

  Gala Dinner & Entertainment
  The city of Venice has an ancient tradition of familiarity with masks, stronger than in any other city in the world. Masks still play a significant role in the city life; they seem to embody the subtle game between illusion and reality that shapes the mysterious identity of Venice. Arlecchino, the famous character from Bergamo tradition, belongs to the Commedia dellÕArte and is considered the most popular of all its characters. He embodies the soul of the peasant, a primitive na•ve and simple character, often a fool and a dullard. The character appears on stage at the same period that acrobats tour the Italian squares and fairs since the Middle Ages. Tonight Arlecchino introduces a famose magicien to anuse and entertein all the guest with his magical performance and other surprises.
  11.00 p.m. spectacle of magic.

• Il Ballo del Doge - Palazzo Pisani Moretta - Venice h.9.00 pm
  The event will mark a rite of passage since the world’s most exclusive masquerade ball will reach its eighteenth edition. Il Ballo del Doge is a stunning re-interpretation of an 18th century Venetian ball. Much sought-after by the international jet set, this ball is the beloved creation of Antonia Sautter and it is she who invites you to leave the everyday, the humdrum and step into her world – a world created from her imagination and inspired by her love for her home city, a world created for pure enjoyment – a hedonistic return to the opulence and grandeur of the Serenissima, the Most Serene Republic. Your memory of this evening will depend entirely on you – do you dare to leave behind you the ennui and limitations of modern life? Let your imagination soar and join in the celebrations. Step into an ethereal world – a world created just for this one night – and become part of the Dream before it melts away as dawn breaks over Venice.

The palace will be illuminated entirely with candlelights to create a memorable atmosphere. Produced in Vienna for the first time in 1905, ‘The Merry Widow’ was acclaimed as a success; Franz Léhar composed an immortal masterpiece in a new music genre, the operetta, which soon would become a great success all over the world. A simple story of love and inheritance, this operetta becomes an extraordinary international success, partly due to the employ of the characteristic elements of the comedy and of the grand ball (it is also named ‘dancing operetta’). Set in Paris, the operetta evolves around the attempt of Baron Zeta, Ambassador of Pontevedro, to find a suitable husband from Pontevedro for the rich Hanna Glavari, young widow of the court banker, and convince her to marry an old flame of hers, Count Danilo, in the hope of keeping her dowry in the country home.
