This year the Giuseppe Verdi conservatory celebrates the summer solstice by actively participating in the European event “Music Festival” by promoting a series of concerts with a varied program spread over several meetings in different locations in the heart of Ravenna.
The music festival was born in France in 1982 and since 1995 some public and private organizations have become co-organizers of this European music festival with the aim of involving and mixing different types of music and audiences to play together every 21st June.
Our conservatory has chosen to actively participate in this event which stimulates a better knowledge of the various current artistic realities in its territory, thus creating greater artistic exchange and sharing.
