Suoni d'Arpa — International Harp Competition in Italy

The 2025 edition, the fourteenth, confirmed Saluzzo as an international reference point for the harp. The auditions and concerts were held in the spaces of the Fondazione Scuola di Alto Perfezionamento Musicale (APM), equipped with soundproofed rooms for the auditions.

Among the guests were Japanese harpist Naoko Yoshino and Russian harpist Oksana Sidyagina, a professor at the Rachmaninoff Conservatory in Paris. The jury, chaired by Emanuela Degli Esposti, awarded scholarships, concert engagements, and the prestigious City of Saluzzo Prize (2,000 euros and a concert for Saint Cecilia). Contestants also had the opportunity to visit the Salvi harp factories in Piasco.
