(ANSA) - GORIZIA, JAN 26 - On Saturday, Feb. 8, the opening day of Go!2025, European Capital of Culture Gorica-Nova Gorica, the horses of the hippomont patrols and the Italian State Police Fanfare are scheduled to perform jointly with the similar Slovenian formation. The State Police Fanfare was founded in the late 1980s performing mainly on horseback until it was established as a "dismounted musical ensemble" in 2004. Its repertoire is very varied, aiming to satisfy every musical taste, exploring different genres including symphonic, operatic and even pop music (by maestro Massimiliano Profili are the arrangements for the Fanfare of some songs from the Sanremo Festival) while nevertheless not neglecting the tradition of symphonic and military marches. For the occasion, four horses in livery of the State Police 'hippomounted' patrols will open the procession that will wind through the city streets. (ANSA).
