The Ticino Musica Festival is a convergence of musicians, renowned Maestros, and up-and-coming talents from around the globe, where artistic expression and instruction are blended to provide both participants and spectators with an encompassing sonic experience. Such a unique combination allows everyone involved in the festival to enjoy exquisite music without boundaries.
With the unwavering support of federal, cantonal, and local governments, Ticino Musica has become a renowned event that draws tourists from around Switzerland. Since its inception in 1979, this festival for young musicians has been delighting audiences with exceptional musical performances year after year. Thanks to decades of experience since then, today it stands as one of the most beloved festivals on Swiss soil – all thanks to its devoted fans who have made it into what is now known as the "Ticino Musica Festival."
Every year, Ticino Musica invites acclaimed musicians and pedagogues to partake in a two-week full-immersion course featuring singing, instrumental solo, and chamber music performance, composition, contemporary music laboratory, and the international Opera Studio. This is an incredible opportunity for emerging artists to learn from some of the best in the business!
Ticino Musica is not only a cultural and social event but also a destination for tourism. Each year they bring together 500 people, including students, teachers, supporting staff, and parents from around the world, to interact with locals in major cities within Ticino as well as smaller towns and rural contexts at renowned venues.
