Great classical music comes for free to the Walser auditorium at the foot of Monte Rosa
About Monterosa Classica in Issime
Classical Music in the Monte Rosa Valleys
Monterosa Classica is a summer classical music festival held in the valleys at the foot of Monte Rosa, in the Aosta Valley. Conceived and coordinated by Patrick Mittiga and Giorgio Costa (Associazione Musica & Muse), the event has pursued the goal of making fine music accessible to everyone since its early editions, enhancing the territories and venues that host it: churches, auditoriums, and spaces of acoustic and architectural prestige among Brusson, Champoluc-Ayas, Challand, and Issime.
The Z'Lannsch Hous Auditorium in Issime
Among the festival's venues, the Z'Lannsch Hous Auditorium in Issime, a Walser municipality in the Lys Valley, Aosta Province, stands out. The name itself, in the Titsch dialect, reflects the town's German-speaking identity. The auditorium is a regular and historic stop for the festival, which offers free admission concerts here, usually in the evening.
Repertoires and Performers
The programming ranges from the great composers — from Baroque to Classicism, from Romanticism to contemporary repertoire — also giving space to emerging young talents. In past editions, the Issime auditorium has hosted chamber ensembles and piano duos with programs dedicated to waltz music and film scores, confirming the variety that characterizes the festival.
A Festival Spread Across the Territory
Attending a Monterosa Classica concert in Issime means combining the enjoyment of great music with the discovery of an authentic corner of the Aosta Valley, amidst Walser culture, alpine landscapes, and mountain hospitality.
