“…Relating to the staff, the unforgettable, late Ermanno Tiramani stands out, the longtime vice
president who had firmly believed in the competition since its very first editions. Thanks to him and
to his own management skills Valsesia Musica has become more and more important over the
years…sincere gratitude and deep appreciation for his lifetime dedication…”

“Associazione
Culturale
Valsesia
Musica”
is
a
nonprofit
association
whose
mission
is
organizing
free
concerts
to
promote
music
and
to
improve
the
cultural
life
of
Valsesia,
a
mountain
area
situated
far
from
the
main
cities.
It
was
founded
in
Varallo
to
provide
the
homonymous
competition,
formerly
known
as
“Viotti
–
Valsesia”
and
created
in
1981
to
promote
tourism
and
to
highlight
young
talented
pianists
as
well,
with
a
proficient
organizing
committee
needed
by
its
growing
international role.
Valsesia
Musica
also
joined
“Alink-Argerich
Foundation”
in 2004.
As
the
statute
of
the
association
gives
equal
value
both
to
tourism
and
culture,
Valsesia
Musica
must
also
be
mentioned
as
one
of
the
best
tourist
promoters
of
the
area due to the economic benefits produced.
