Festival Salento Classica

During the month of September, music becomes protagonist in the baroque city, in order to homage the finest compositors in the world.

The festival is organised by the Tito Schipa foundation that, since 2013, welcomes musicians from all over the world, to collaborate and work hand in hand with the local musicians.

Classical music, in these days, can be heard in the most stunning places of the city, such as the Santa Croce church and Palazzo Celestini. Among compositors celebrated from the festivals in the past editions, some highlights were present, such as Ludwig Van Beethoven and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
