Presentation

The National Committee for the Bicentennial Celebrations of the Casa Ricordi Foundation 1808-2008 wasfounded on 26th April 2006, by virtue of a decree by the Ministry for Cultural Goods and Activities. The purpose of this decree was to enhance the image and role that Ricordi represents for
Milan and for the entire world – a priceless artistic and historical heritage.

The celebrations will be an extraordinary opportunity to retrace the fundamental moments of  Italian Creativity. Italy itself, thanks to the work of the Committee, will be promoted world-wide, via the history of Casa Ricordi.  Today, as in the past two-hundred years, the company is still perfectly in line with the history of entrepreneurism, commercial activity, music, artistic nature and literature that has always characterized our country.
