Meet the artists: Album.

<<Artists on stage move in a world of their own through the magic of music, but they live in the same world as all of us, enjoying the same beauties of Nature, visiting the same places, and often sharing our same passions.
We have asked our guest artistes at the Stresa Festival to slow down and stop a moment, to give themselves a few hours to appreciate the splendors of Stresa and Lake Maggiore. We have also asked them to spend a few hours with our public – just a few dozen appointments, booked in advance.

These unusual appointments have been assembled like an Album, to be added to the musical experience of the Festival. You will have a chance to stroll in stunningly beautiful gardens, take a boat trip on the Lake, join in a chat on a terrace, or climb a mountain at dawn with the stars of the Festival, to listen to stories and anecdotes, their experiences, and quite possibly a few bars of improvisation!
But that’s not all – passions, like great cuisine, Ferrari, or architecture can take the shape of surprising musical experiences such as a rehearsal together for amateur musicians, or listening to an old vinyl record played on a spectacular hi-fi installation.

Our great artistes will step down from the stage at the Stresa Festival to give you a page to put in your album – music, art and the beauties of Nature around us>>.
