Music and traditions
Parade of the Trento city music corps along the central Strada Rezia and concert in the square in front of the tourist office
For the summer cycle of "Music and traditions", a local band or by another one coming from the nearest valleys will entertain the public with their repertoire. Enliven by the volunteering spirit that is characteristic of the Trentino South Tyrol, the brass band is an occasion to socialize between people of different ages, where everybody puts his own passion at the service of the community, transmitting the habits, the costumes and the history of the society. The evening, starting at 9 p.m., includes a parade of the Trento city music corps along the main street of Vigo (Strada Rezia) and concert in the square in front of the tourist office.
The Trento city music corps, founded in 1801, is the oldest band in Trentino and has over fifty musicians, mainly young people. Under the direction of Maestro Fabrizio Zanon, the repertoire includes traditional band scores, international compositions, transcriptions of classics, soundtracks and songs of military origin. The band performs at major city events and also represents Trento at institutional events abroad, promoting local musical culture with a touch of modernity and musical diversity.
In case of rain, the parade will be cancelled and only the concert will take place at the events pavilion in front of Hotel Vael.
