Like it is possible to see, 13 musical groups (with 80 artists) were involved and they proposed their performances during the various editions. For the coming editions other musicians, some italians and some from abroad, were invited and they showed their own interest of partecipating.
The “Accademia del Chiostro” has worked for all these years for performing concerts and musical events within the main museums presents in Genova, Savona and their own provinces. After the success of the previous musical season the association is working for the realisation of a project which involves the all four provinces of Liguria.
