"AngelicA" music festival celebrates his 18th birthday. This year, from the 8th until the 17th of May 2008, a wide line-up, coming from all over the world, will make you discover what music revolution really means. "AngelicA 18" is definitely opened to all musical forms, especially the emergent ones, and their representation in the most diverse contexts, with the aim of getting them across to/making them meet an ever-expanding audience. The MAMBo (Museo d'Arte Moderna di Bologna) is also taking part of the festival. Three events will actually take place in the museum.
"AngelicA 18" points at being one of the most innovative european music festival and the historical background of Bologna really fits in with that philosophy.
See you there!
