About Amici della Musica Foligno
A Musical Tradition in Foligno
The Amici della Musica Association of Foligno, in the province of Perugia, organizes an annual concert season that has been a benchmark for musical life in Umbria for over forty years. The main venue is the prestigious San Domenico Auditorium, complemented by the Oratorio del Crocifisso for more intimate events.
A Programme Spanning Genres
The season ranges from great classical music to jazz, from sacred music to author songs. Piano recitals, chamber and symphonic concerts, premieres, and projects for schools alternate over several months, under the artistic direction of Marco Scolastra. Over time, the festival has hosted internationally renowned soloists and ensembles, while maintaining a particular focus on young audiences with discounted rates for students.
Music for the City
In addition to concerts, the Association promotes educational projects and solidarity initiatives, reaffirming the cultural role of music in the community of Foligno and the entire Umbria Region. The season is now one of the most anticipated events in Foligno's cultural calendar.
