Amici della Musica

What Amici della Musica does

Amici della Musica is a private nonprofit cultural association (Associazione 'Amici della Musica') founded in 1984 and headquartered in Meana di Susa, in the Valle di Susa of Piedmont, Italy. It is governed by an 11-member committee and led by President Enrico Demaria. The association promotes classical and contemporary music, dance music, music education, and ethnomusicological documentation, serving local residents, schools, scholars, and young musicians across the upper Susa Valley.

The organization's core portfolio comprises the annual Rassegna 'Il Giglio' classical concert series (since 1985), the 'Estatemusica' summer dance music series (since 1985), the 'Insegnamusica' school music education initiative (since 1985), the 'Musicagiovani' rock series, the 'Ricordamusica' nursing-home concert program, the Biblioteca Musicale (a library holding 6,000+ cataloged titles spanning scores, recordings, periodicals, and CD-ROMs), and the Centro di Documentazione Etnografico Musicale della Valle di Susa (established 1992 for ethnomusicological research). Enrico Demaria developed A.Da.Mus., proprietary cataloging software used by Biblioteca Marciana di Venezia, Biblioteca Nazionale Universitaria di Torino, and Discoteca di Stato di Roma. Concert programming spans at least seven municipalities — Meana di Susa, Condove, Mattie, Exilles, Sant'Ambrogio, Oulx, and Bardonecchia — primarily in churches and the Evangelical Temple.

The revenue model combines annual membership subscriptions (tesseramento) acquired during events with per-event concert attendance, supplemented by institutional grants from Regione Piemonte, Provincia di Torino, Comunità Montana Alta Valle di Susa e Val Cenischia, and participating municipalities and parishes. Marketing is conducted principally through printed concert programs, local institutional networks, and scholarly publications; reach is regional, focused on the Valle di Susa. No revenue, pricing, headcount trend, or growth metrics are publicly disclosed.
