EVENTS

Concerts & Prizes

In cooperation with De Sono, the Foundation organises concerts presenting varied programmes, often directly inspired by the selected locations.
The repertoire ranges from the baroque of Bach and Vivaldi to electronic music, popular songs and jazz.
Each year it awards talented young people with a Renzo Giubergia Memorial Prize, which is both an acknowledgement of a promising career and a concrete support for further training at a higher level.
After a decade-long commitment to the recognition of young soloists, since 2022 the partnership's interest has focused on the field of chamber music, which often sees the emergence of brilliant ensembles that, however, lack adequate support.
Thanks to the collaboration of an internationally renowned jury, the selection is reserved for ensembles under 26 that are launching a promising career in this specific sector.
