Classiche Armonie Festival LAB

The festival that blends genres in Carrù

The Classiche Armonie Festival LAB is the natural evolution of the concert series that has enlivened the summer in Carrù, in the province of Cuneo, in the heart of the Piedmontese Langhe, for several years. Following editions dedicated to chamber music, classical, and jazz, the Classiche Armonie Musical and Cultural Association is launching the LAB project: a sound laboratory that encourages a dialogue between different languages and sensibilities, bringing diverse audiences together. The slogan chosen by the organizers perfectly captures the spirit of the event: more genres, more visions, more stories.

Two days, two souls

The festival is spread over two days with complementary characters. The first evening takes place in Piazza Divisione Alpina Cuneense and is dedicated to the new independent music scene, with a stage hosting singer-songwriters, electronic, neo-soul, and rock acts, accompanied by a food & drink area serving beer, wine, and local products. The second day brings the great classical tradition back to the historic sites of the town center, with widespread, free-admission concerts that transform the courtyards, squares, and halls of Carrù into intimate open-air concert venues.

Rooted in the territory

The event is supported by the Fondazione CRC, the BCC Alpi Marittime of Carrù, and the Municipality of Carrù, with the patronage of the Cuneo Chamber of Commerce and the contribution of local sponsors. More than just a concert series, the LAB aims to be a cultural meeting point for the Langhe and the province of Cuneo, capable of bringing international names to Carrù while highlighting the town's historic center, also famous for its gastronomic traditions and the historic Fiera del Bue Grasso (Fat Ox Fair).
