To begin, on July 12th 2010, the famous stylist Pierre Cardin will propose you to have a sneak preview of his new production: a musical called "Casanova, loves and deceits in Venice". The supervision has been put into the hands of Rodrigo Basilicati who imagined the traditional Opera with signed costums of the designer.
On July 16th the french singer Charles Aznavour will enchant you with his new album registered with the Clayton Hamilton Jazz Orchestra called "Aznavoice". The reference to Frank Sinatra is obvious and his long carrier gives him the elegance that all the Jazz singers have.

The inauguration of the Venice Jazz Festival has been given to the Pat Metheny Group one of the most import group of the last twenty years who won 7 Grammy Awards the one after the other. The other expected concert is the one of Norah Jones on July 24th who presents to the Italian public her new album "The Fall".
