## About
Opere and concerts – performed in the splendid setting of the Palazzo Ducale in the old centre of Martina Franca

- The** Festival della Valle d’Itria in Martina Franca** began in 1975 as an initiative of a group of passionate music lovers headed by Alessandro Caroli, the Festival’s first president, determinedly supported by Franco Punzi – then mayor of Martina Franca – and Paolo Grassi, who was then superintendent at the Teatro alla Scala.
- From the outset, the festival stood out for its** bold programming** of a repertoire and a performance style which were underestimated for a long time.
