About Lombard Youth Orchestras Festival

The Festival of Lombard Youth Orchestras is the classical music event that every winter brings the young talents of Lombardy's conservatories to the Casa delle Arti in Cernusco sul Naviglio. Three free concerts showcase the youth orchestras of the conservatories of Gallarate, Milan, and Cremona, with a repertoire ranging from Mozart to Schubert, from Weber to Tchaikovsky. Organized by the Alari Cultural Association, the festival offers the community a high-level symphonic season and young musicians a prestigious stage.

The Young Talents of Lombardy's Conservatories

In Cernusco sul Naviglio, in the province of Milan, the Festival of Lombard Youth Orchestras is the winter event dedicated to great symphonic music performed by the new generations. The festival, hosted at the Casa delle Arti, brings together the youth orchestras of the main conservatories in Lombardy, offering young instrumentalists an opportunity for growth and the public a quality concert season.

Three Conservatories, Three Concerts

The festival is divided into three events, featuring the conservatories of Gallarate (Giacomo Puccini), Milan (Giuseppe Verdi), and Cremona (Claudio Monteverdi). Each concert presents a refined program, with pieces by Mozart, Weber, Schubert, and Tchaikovsky performed by the youth orchestras under the guidance of expert conductors. A format that enhances emerging talent while bringing the community closer to classical music.

A Symphonic Season for Everyone

Organized by the Alari Cultural Association, the festival has a clear educational aim: to offer Cernusco sul Naviglio a high-level symphonic season with free admission, making cultured music accessible to all. It is also an opportunity for the youth orchestras of the Lombard conservatories to perform in front of a real audience, in a curated and welcoming setting.

Musical Culture in the Martesana

With this event, Cernusco sul Naviglio confirms its cultural vocation within the Martesana territory. The Festival of Lombard Youth Orchestras is a bridge between the region's musical institutions and the local public, a project that invests in the future of classical music by giving space to the young people who will interpret it tomorrow.
