Sir Francesco Paolo Tosti, arguably the greatest Italian composer of salon music of the nineteenth century, was revered by Verdi, Puccini, Mascagni, Queen Victoria and legendary singers such as Dame Nellie Melba and Enrico Caruso. His music and his life will be presented in Hong Kong for the first time in a unique salon-style/chamber music setting featuring guest singers and instrumentalists from Italy and the City Chamber Orchestra of Hong Kong.
