GamMAH, located on the Promenade du Pin, is an extension of the Musée d’art et d’histoire (MAH). It offers an alternative space where the museum’s collections can be explored in new ways, combining exhibitions with opportunities for social interaction. The venue also hosts smaller, more intimate events that encourage informal discussions about art and history.
Patrick Favre-Tissot, musicologist and author of Giuseppe Verdi (Bleu Nuit editions), brings scholarly expertise in 19th-century opera and cultural history.
This lecture examines how Verdi’s compositions intersected with Italian patriotism, investigating key works, historical contexts, and musical rhetoric that fostered national sentiment. It explores artistic strategies Verdi used to address political themes and what that reveals about opera’s role in 19th-century public life.
