She is an orchestra conductor at international level, and the first woman to hold the baton of the State Opera Orchestra in Georgia. Not only is she the youngest woman conductor in Italy, but she also entered the Forbes rank of the 100 most influential Italians under 30 years of age. This is because she is not afraid of breaking up with customary habits, and she brings in all her youth and femininity when she performs her job.
At work, she is thoroughly prepared – She graduated in piano and conducting, while dedicating to musicology research and writing essays in this field.
On Instagram, she is extremely active – She tells other youths the opera plots, especially those by her beloved Puccini. She shows everyone how applicable they are to our times. In particular, she considers Puccini’s Bohème as the mirror of her generation, because it narrates of economic insecurity that translates into relationship insecurity. Beatrice rejoices at the answers she gets from her followers. Some of them write that they are surprised, because they thought opera was something boring that only the elderly would enjoy. Venezi stepped proudly on the stage of the Lucca festival where the Rolling Stones had previously performed. She was happy to bring classical music to the ears of those who usually listen to rock music. She believes crossing over into contamination is unnecessary, because classical music can be appreciated as pure as it is.
On the podium, she is a woman – She refuses to conform to male-conducting customs or to wear a tailcoat. She prefers feminine elegance, not only in terms of clothes (she loves long gowns), but also in terms of movement. She declares she is figuring out how to move on the podium, because there are no historical models from which to learn the gestures of a female classical conductor. The current generation is the first to see women holding a baton in front of an orchestra, therefore they have to invent their movements by themselves through their own sensitivity.
