The Sicilian Friends of Music Association, a historic concert institution founded in Palermo in 1925, is dedicated to the promotion and dissemination of ancient, modern, and contemporary chamber music, as well as to the musical education of the public. Over the course of nearly a century, it has curated numerous concert seasons, bringing prominent performers from the chamber, jazz, and pop worlds to the stage, cementing its role as a key player in the city's cultural life.
The association has long since launched an educational project aimed at schools: the School Project, thanks to which musical activities for young people have been complemented by a season of educational concerts. These events, held at the Politeama Garibaldi, are characterized by a direct and engaging approach, designed to build a genuine connection between young audiences and music.
The current fundraising campaign is called "Cento Amici della Musica 2024," with a goal of €50,000. This participatory initiative aims to engage the Palermo community, leveraging the personal contributions of citizens and businesses and highlighting the connection between the social fabric and the cultural heritage represented by the association. The initiative is open to anyone who wishes to support the future of the organization.
In short, the Sicilian Friends of Music Association combines tradition and innovation: it combines extensive experience in concert production with a strong focus on music education and civic participation. The active fundraising campaign demonstrates the ongoing commitment to engaging the community and ensuring a vibrant and participatory future for the cultural project.
