The 33rd edition of Concerto di Natale, held on December 13, 2025, at the Auditorium Conciliazione in Rome, will feature Romanian artists Stephanie Radu and Alin Stoica.\u00a0The concert, a Christmas emblem, brings artists from all over the world before the international public.<\/p>\n
Soprano Stephanie Radu will perform two special moments, namely \u201cRegalo di Natale,\u201d her award-winning composition, and \u201cGesu Bambino,\u201d performed as a duet with the celebrated tenor Alin Stoica. The two pieces will come to life alongside the Orchestra Italiana del Cinema, under the baton of maestro Adriano Pennino, and the children\u2019s choir Piccolo Coro Le Dolci Note.<\/p>\n
Stephanie Radu has performed in over 30 countries, becoming a distinguished cultural ambassador of Romania. Winner of over 400 awards in classical singing competitions, light music, ballet, and piano, the artist stands out through her versatility and interpretive discipline.<\/p>\n
In 2024, Stephanie Radu won the Award for Vocal Technical Mastery at the \u201cConcorso di Natale.\u201d Her piece, \u201cRegalo di Natale,\u201d was first among the top 16 semi-finalists, then the top 8 finalists, and finally among the 4 winning pieces of the edition.<\/p>\n
\u201cPerforming at the Concerto di Natale is not only a crowning of my work, but a return to essence, where music becomes prayer and emotion takes form. To be one of the voices of this edition is an artistic blessing, and Rome remains the city that opened my heart and unknowingly wrote a chapter of my destiny,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Tenor Alin Stoica, Stephanie Radu\u2019s stage partner in the duet \u201cGesu Bambino,\u201d is one of the most respected and sought-after male voices of the moment. He appeared with great success at the Concerto di Natale two years ago and was later invited to the prestigious Concerto dell\u2019Epifania.<\/p>\n
Stoica is the principal soloist of the Bucharest National Opera and the only Romanian tenor to win the \u201cLuciano Pavarotti\u201d award, a distinction that places him in the world elite of classical music performers.<\/p>\n
As is customary for the Concerto di Natale, on December 13, the artists, organizers, and sponsors will be received in a private audience by Pope Leo XIV.<\/p>\n
The Christmas concert will be broadcast in prime time on December 25 on the Italian channel Canale 5, one of the most-watched programs in Italy, and will later be available on affiliated international platforms.<\/p>\n
