Music on the Apuan Alps

Overview

The notes of music, the sounds of nature, the emotions of those who play and those who listen. “Music on the Apuan Alps” (Musica sulle Apuane) is the festival that combines trekking and concert in an innovative formula where nature and art intertwine, where contact with the audience is informal and the popularization of music is achieved through new ways.

The scene of the Festival are the rugged white peaks of the Apuan Alps that offer visitors' eyes the blinding white of marble quarries and the brilliant blue of the sea on the horizon. A landscape full of paths and suggestions, among green meadows, chestnut, beech and fir forests, cliffs and caves, to be crossed to reach the final destination. Each day of the festival in fact includes a hike (with CAI guides or independently with GPS coordinates provided), a lunch at the reference refuge or packed lunch, and a free concert, usually in the afternoon; the return is in the evening or with an overnight stay at the refuge or in a tent, if the hike requires it.
The artists reach the event site together with the audience.
