Michele Capasso concluded, “I will always remember the paternal affection with which, in the presence of Heads of States and Governments meeting in Naples under the auspices of the Fondazione Mediterraneo in 1997, he urged me to continue my journey as an architect of peace and dialogue” |  |

Diversity of expression was symbolically represented by a symphony of diverse musical genres. The Epiphany Concert, which has been broadcast by the RAI since 1994, is an expression of commitment to intercultural and inter-religious dialogue as well as an opportunity with which to promote and build greater social awareness around the city of Naples.
