One of Giovanni Andrea Zanon’s deepest passions is the promotion of classical music among younger generations. With this aim, he founded two projects that are unique in their kind: theArezzo Youth Music Festival, established in 2020, and theHarmonia Ruris Festival, founded in 2025 in Castelfranco Veneto, his hometown.
Both festivals bring together some of the most talented young musicians from the international scene, who gather not only to present chamber music concerts, but also to take part in a wide range of educational and outreach activities.
Among these, a central role is played by meetings organized in local schools, where students have the opportunity to engage directly with the artists. Through dialogue and personal experience, the musicians convey to young audiences the value, the magic, and the communicative power of music, sharing the journeys that led them to dedicate their lives to their instruments.
