How to have a romantic experience in Venice
For all the lovers who want a romantic experience in Venice …
A city of love and its triumph, everything is a romantic experience in Venice. Take a walk along the canals, enjoy a gondola ride, sip a glass of wine as the sound of the sea gently laps at the shore. It evokes Catullus’ famed poem 5, an ode to his beloved: “Give me a thousand kisses, then a hundred, then another thousand, then a second hundred, then yet another thousand, then a hundred.” Venice is the city of love and kisses, brides and passion. But it is music that ignites passion and unleashes desire, and a truly romantic experience in Venice must be set upon the backdrop of beautiful sound.
Your romantic experience in Venice: the concerts of I Musici Veneziani
The I Musici Veneziani orchestra is an extraordinary group, made up of incredible musicians who offer you a total immersion in classical music. But the experience goes far beyond just the music. In fact, the musicians perform in period costumes so that the audience becomes wrapped up in the history of Venice and the grandeur and opulence of the Venetian Republic, which was not only powerful in trade but also, and above all, a driving force for artistic creation. Thus, your romantic experience in Venice must definitely be a Baroque experience.
The perfect setting for a romantic experience in Venice
The Scuola Grande di San Teodoro is a place like none other. This historic building was a former confraternity dedicated to charity that was founded in the 8th century. The Scuola Grande di San Teodoro is one of the best venues to see a classical music concert in Venice because everything revolves around the Baroque style, from the classic Baroque design of the northeast facade, created by Antonio Sardi; to the work of Longhena; the Capitular Hall on the first floor; and the grand staircase by Giuseppe Sardi, Antonio’s son. This is where your romantic experience in Venice begins: everything around you speaks to you of the zeitgeist—the period costumes worn by the orchestra, the props and furnishings, and the welcoming staff attending to you.
