Music in the church
The magic of classical music at Santa Maria del Tiglio
Why it’s worth experiencing
Every Saturday in July at 7:00 pm, the magnificent Church of Santa Maria del Tiglio, one of the finest examples of Romanesque architecture on Lake Como, becomes an extraordinary concert hall.
The Music in the Church festival, organised by the Civic Music Institute, offers piano recitals, chamber music and classical performances in a unique setting where history, art and music come together.
The church’s remarkable acoustics and the peaceful atmosphere of a summer evening on Lake Como create an unforgettable experience. Admission is free.

CaFelicita Tip
Arrive a little early and enjoy a stroll along Gravedona’s lakeside promenade before the concert. You may also like to stop for an aperitif or dinner in one of the charming restaurants in the historic centre.
The combination of the evening light, the beauty of Santa Maria del Tiglio and live classical music creates one of the most memorable summer experiences on Lake Como.
