Edition 2025 — Baroque Festival
San Gimignano Baroque Festival 2025 - 16th Edition
The sixteenth edition of the San Gimignano Baroque Festival was held in the evocative Sala di Dante of the Civic Museums, with three concerts on September 13, 27, and 28, 2025.
On September 13, the Dulcedo Ardens ensemble presented a program dedicated to Francesca Caccini and her most famous work, La liberazione di Ruggiero dall'isola di Alcina, on the fourth centenary of its first performance. Saturday, September 27 (5:30 PM), the Bisentium ensemble—featuring Daniele Iannaccone on violin, Fabia Simini on cello, and Fabrizio Datteri on keyboards—performed sonatas by Tuscan authors such as Barsanti, Manfredi, and Zipoli. Sunday, September 28 (5:30 PM), the Ensemble dei Leggieri closed the festival with vocal and instrumental music by Händel, Telemann, Lotti, and Vivaldi.
The concerts, curated by the Accademia dei Leggieri in the municipality of San Gimignano (Tuscany), confirmed the festival's commitment to historical performance practice and the rediscovery of the Baroque repertoire.
