About Residart Monsano

Every September, the Church of the Aroli in Monsano, in the heart of Vallesina, hosts the Residart concerts of the Pergolesi Spontini Festival: intimate chamber music evenings with young international performers under 35, born from the collaboration between the Pergolesi Spontini Foundation, the Residart network, and the Orlando European Summer Course. A refined event that brings great classical music to a small village in the province of Ancona.

Residart Concerts in the Village of Monsano

The Pergolesi Spontini Festival is one of the most important musical events in the Marche region, organized by the Pergolesi Spontini Foundation and held every summer across the municipalities of Vallesina, in the province of Ancona. Within its rich program, the Residart section, dedicated to chamber music, finds its place, and for several editions has chosen the Church of the Aroli in Monsano as its opening venue.

Monsano is a small Municipality in the province of Ancona, nestled in the gentle hills of Vallesina: a secluded and quiet setting that proves perfect for listening to chamber music. The evocative Church of the Aroli, in the hamlet of the same name, becomes an intimate concert hall for an evening, where the audience can closely appreciate the talent of young performers.

What is Residart

Residart is the first network of artistic residences in the Marche region and was born from the collaboration between the Pergolesi Spontini Foundation, the Residart Festival, and the Orlando European Summer Course for Chamber Music. The project offers musicians under 35, from all over Europe, the opportunity to refine their skills and perform in public: the concerts in Monsano are part of a cycle that also includes Monte Roberto, Jesi, and Montecarotto, giving a voice to the ensembles that have won scholarships and internationally renowned soloists.

An Excellent Musical Experience

The Residart evenings feature programs ranging from the classical repertoire to late Romantic and 20th-century works, with composers such as Ravel, Debussy, Busoni, and Saint-Saëns. The formula is that of great music tailored for a village: affordable tickets, small venues, and a direct relationship between artists and listeners. It is not uncommon for concerts to sell out well in advance, a sign of the audience's affection for this series.

For those visiting the Marche at the end of summer, the Residart concerts in Monsano are a precious opportunity to discover an authentic village in Vallesina and, at the same time, experience an international-level cultural event within the prestigious Pergolesi Spontini Festival.
