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.
