Music becomes solidarity

Verona is getting ready to welcome the fourth edition of "La Musica si Fa Solidarietà", a project conceived by Federico Martinelli and organized together with the Quinta Parete Cultural Association, which over the years has managed to transform a charity concert into a significant moment of encounter between music, medicine, volunteering, and citizenship. After three editions, €45,000 raised, and numerous healthcare and Third Sector professionals involved, the appointment conceived by Federico Martinelli and organized with the Quinta Parete Cultural Association confirms itself as one of the most significant solidarity events in the city of Verona.

The 2026 edition marks an important novelty: after three years at the Auditorium of the Palazzo della Gran Guardia, the event moves to the Theater Stimate in Verona, where it will be articulated into two appointments with distinct proposals, scheduled for Friday, October 23 and Friday, November 20, 2026, both starting at 8:45 p.m..

On October 23, 2026, there will be a grand tribute to Italian pop, author, and beat music featuring the groups Dragon Fly, Spesiola Blues Band, and Seghetti School Band; the solo performance by Arianna Vicentini and the very young Anna Tiozzo, already a prominent figure in The Voice of Italy Kids; Sofia Pighi, already a star of Io Canto Family; Pietro Longhini, Valentina Roso, Giulia Marinelli, and the CMT – Musical Theatre Company.

On November 20, 2026, some of the groups that already participated in the previous edition will take the stage again, with a renewed repertoire, namely Cafè Society and Da Fogo Evolution, along with the Medici per Strada Official Band, for an evening dedicated to Italian music from the Sixties to Today.
Both evenings will be enriched by the traditional solidarity lottery, which has now become one of the most anticipated moments by the public.

 

This year, the proceeds will be donated to “La miglior vita possibile”, to support the construction of the new Pediatric Hospice in Padua; “Abeo Verona”, “Amo Baldo Garda”, and “Aismme” to support daily activities, along with a donation in favor of “Medici per la strada APS”, an organization particularly active in supporting emergencies and people in difficulty.
