Teatro Del Silenzio
The “Teatro del Silenzio” is a natural amphitheater set in the splendid setting of the hills of Lajatico, created by the will of Architect Alberto Bartalini and Maestro Andrea Bocelli.
A “silent” project, in a space that for almost an entire year remains intact in its perfect harmony, coming alive for a few days with characters of bel canto, music and dance, national and international.
A small landscape jewel of the Volterrano hinterland in the heart of Tuscany.
