Latium Concerts And Music Festivals
As always, or almost always, there's lots of music happening in Rome. Don't miss the May Day Musical (Primo Maggio) in Piazza San Giovanni. For more information consult http://kadmusarts.com/festivals/3891.html
It takes two to tango so bring a friend to the Roma Tango Meeting held in Italy’s capital of Italy from June 23 to June 26. You say you don’t tango; lessons are available. For more information consult http://www.romatangomeeting.com.
Isola Del Liri Waterfall
What do you think about FREE? From June 29 to July 3 the little city of Isola del Liri in the central Italian Latium region hosts the Liri Blues Fest. Concerts are held in the main square (Piazza Boncompagni), in the streets and nighttime means jam sessions. This year’s stars are Eric Bibb, Albert Lee, Sonny Landreth, Bettye Lavette, and Colosseum.

I don't think that I have to introduce Rome. From October 7 to November 30 the Eternal City hosts the RomaEuropa Festival, devoted to music, dance, and theatre. This will give you just one more reason to visit during the "off-season". For more information consult the Italian-language website http://www.teatroecritica.net/2011/06/programma-romaeuropa-festival-2011/ .
But that's not all the music in Rome during the Fall season. From October 26 to November 6 the Eternal City also hosts the Festival Internazionale di Musica e Arte Sacra. Do you need a translation? The performances are held in several Papal Basilicas. For more information consult http://www.festivalmusicaeartesacra.net/en/programm.php .
From December 19 to December 31 the Eternal city hosts the Roma Gospel Festival. Most groups perform in English but opening night's Soweto Gospel Choir performs in eight South African languages. For more information consult http://www.romagospelfestival.it/en/programma/soweto-gospel-choir/ .
