Our Mission and History

Italian Opera in Siena is a music festival founded in 2013 

Italian Opera in Siena’s mission is to bring Italian culture to a wide international audience. The task is accomplished with the experience and enthusiasm of the founding members and through collaboration with other Italian artistic organisations.

Italian Opera in Siena aims to lead its audience into discovering Italian bel canto through a rich programme of concerts in Siena and throughout Italy: its concerts offer performances from artists who tread the stages of the world’s greatest Opera Houses such as La Scala Milan, the Arena di Verona, the Royal Opera House London etc.

Thanks to its highly-skilled professionals, numerous concerts (over eight hundred from 2013 to 2024), festival and private events have been organised under the Italian Opera in Siena brand, with a consistently high level offering and with great attention to its public.
