Our town has a deep-rooted and strong tradition with music; the concerts will be performed from September 15th to October14th, also for a tourist deseasonalization purpose.
The programm includes national and international artists, with proposals of the local tradition
together with everlasting Classics and makes once more this event one of the most enjoyable
among the cultural and artistic offers of our region.
The Music Director for this year is Antonio Maione and the festival has been included in the Great Events of The Regione Campania and financed by the Regional Assessorship of Tourism and Arts .
The Fondazione Sorrento, in cooperation with the local Tourist Associations and the Town Hall of Sorrento and Sant’Agnello were of great help in the organization of the festival with the mutual purpose of arranging events of considerable interest to promote our area.
