Valentine's Day Opera Serenades

An intimate Opera event with the most beautiful love melodies

The secret apartment of Princess Doria Pamphilj, still inhabited by the Princess when she resides in Rome, originated as a love nest between two of her ancestors who lived in the 1700s. Everything in these intimate and refined spaces speaks of love: the sumptuous furnishings, the artworks, the sculptures dating back to ancient Rome, and the precious frescoes. Here, you can listen to the most beautiful love arias from the same era as the noble palace, one of the most famous in Rome. The splendid soprano voice will be accompanied by period instruments, offering you a romantic and unforgettable evening.
