The FCTO Community Days are back, the days dedicated to involving the community in unmissable cultural events to raise funds for the many activities that the Foundation has been carrying out in the area for 18 years now.
Special concerts in factories to raise funds for the Community Foundation
After the success of the 2023 edition, the initiative to bring the music of the Stradivari violin among the people continues, this time in the factories, laboratories, establishments, understood as the hotbed of Italian production and opened specifically to create unforgettable events.
The traveling concert festival “A Stradivari for the People” 2024 edition will therefore be called “Sounds in the Factories”.
The project is carried out in collaboration with the Accademia Concertante d’Archi of Milan, directed by Maestro Mauro Ivano Benaglia, with the participation of Maestro Lorenzo Meraviglia who plays a 1730 Stradivari violin; with the collaboration of Fondazione Per Leggere; with the availability of local entrepreneurs who will open their factories to host the concerts.
The Ticino Olona Community Foundation will offer the public three unforgettable evenings which it will be possible to attend with a symbolic donation of 10 euros per person, the proceeds of which will be used to manage the numerous initiatives they carry out and support every day for the area. A fourth concert will then be held in the city of Legnano on the occasion of the celebrations for the centenary of the city with free participation.
