The resounding Universe | Concert and conference
with Nazareno Caputo and Marco Padovani
followed by sky observation through telescope
The immensity of the sky and the twinkle of the stars have always inspired humanity and many scientists have been great music lovers or even musicians, such as Galileo, Herschel and Einstein. Through Marco Padovani's tales and Nazareno Caputo's music we will explore the evocative and intriguing link between cosmos and music.
