Flautist Gianluca Campo and harpist Antonio Ostuni are two Italian musicians who have performed as a duo in prestigious concert halls around Europe. Both also teach at the the Conservatorio Vincenzo Bellini di Catania, Sicily. Gianluca Campo is first flute in the orchestra of the Teatro La Fenice di Venezia. He was first solo flute of the St Gallen Symphony Orchestra from 2016 to 2023 and held the same position at the Bavarian State Opera in the 2019–20 season. In 2022 he reached the final of the competition for a position as soloist with the Berlin Philharmonic. He has also been a member of the Luigi Cherubini Orchestra under Riccardo Muti and a member of the academy of the Bavarian State Orchestra under Kirill Petrenko. Antonio Ostuni enjoys a prolific international concert career. He appeared at the ninth and tenth editions of the World Harp Congress in (respectively) Dublin and Amsterdam, took part in a live broadcast by Radio Vatican from the Vatican’s Sala Assunta and has performed with the Haydn Orchestra of Bolzano and Trento as the soloist in the Harp Concerto  by Alberto Evaristo Ginastera. He has won numerous prizes, including first prize at the international competition Concours Renié and the Premio Nazionale delle Arti awarded by Italy’s Ministry of Education. The first part of the concert is dedicated to the Italian composers Gaetano Donizetti, Gioachino Rossini, Nino Rota and Domenico Turi and will include the first performance in Slovenia of Turi’s Metamorfosi.  The second part will feature music from the French tradition by composers Claude Debussy, Camille Saint-Saëns and Maurice Ravel.
