I Virtuosi Italiani · Teatro Ristori or San Pietro in Monastero
I Virtuosi Italiani, a Verona chamber orchestra founded in 1989, play their concert season at Teatro Ristori and the church of San Pietro in Monastero, and this listing sells seats for it. Pick it for a real local concert, sitting with Veronese regulars, at about the box-office price.
This isn't a tourist show. I Virtuosi Italiani are a professional chamber orchestra based in Verona, and the listing sells tickets to their own concert season. The 2026-27 season runs from 11 October 2026 into May 2027 in two venues: Teatro Ristori, a restored 19th-century theatre, for the evening concerts at 20:30, and the church of San Pietro in Monastero for Sunday matinées at 11:00 and some evening chamber concerts. One reviewer noted that the audience is mostly Italians of all ages.
The programme changes every week, so read it before you book. Some dates are the full orchestra with a soloist, such as Beethoven's Emperor Concerto and Fifth Symphony at Teatro Ristori on 22 October 2026, or Vivaldi's Four Seasons at San Pietro in Monastero on Sunday 15 November 2026. Others are a string quartet, a wind quintet or a crossover show with dancers. None of them is opera. For an opera night, see the palace opera concert.
Price-wise there's no catch. The orchestra's own leaflet lists single tickets at EUR 25 full price, EUR 20 over 65 and EUR 10 under 30; from $28 on GetYourGuide is close to that. Guests say tickets wait at the box office in an envelope with your name. The season pauses in summer, when Verona's music moves to the Arena.
Pick your date for the music: orchestra, chamber group or baroque. Your option sets the venue.
The box office opens an hour before the concert. Show your voucher; staff hand over your tickets, usually in an envelope with your name.
The listing gives about an hour and a half. Programmes and line-ups change from week to week.
Both venues are a short walk from Piazza Bra and the restaurants of the centre.
