In 2013, a group of internationally recognized musicians, tired of traveling the world, decided to create a new musical reality in Venice, which involved launching “musical archaeology:” �nding manuscripts of music in archives and libraries and performing them for the �rst time in 200-300 years. Inspired by other international historic and artistic preservation endeavors, VMP have expanded our mission to include helping to fund the restoration of the beautiful and

historic venues where we perform. In this manner, we hope to leave a greater Venetian patrimony for this and future generations to enjoy.It is thanks to the strong musical traditions of Venice, sponsored by the families that were the backbone of the Republic of the Serenissima, that we have today's music. Without Venetian Church music and Monteverdi's advances with polyphony, the great traditions of choral music in England, France, and Germany would never have developed. Without the operas written by Monteverdi, Cavalli, and Vivaldi, not only would the later styles of opera never have been invented, but also there would be no basis for the American Musical or the German and Viennese Operetta, the Spanish Zarzuela, and even rock, pop, and contempo-rary music as we know it. To follow our progress, please visit: www.venicemusicproject.it.

Nel 2013 un gruppo di musicisti, stanchi di viaggiare per il mondo, ha deciso di creare una nuova realta' musicale a Venezia, lanciando un'operazione di "archeologia musicale:" scovando manoscritti di musica in archivi e biblioteche e eseguendoli per la prima volta dopo 200-300 anni. Ispirati da altri sforzi internazionali di conservazione storica e artistica, abbiamo ampliato la nostra missione per includere il restauro delle meravigliose sedi storiche dove ci esibiamo. In questo modo, speriamo di contribuire alla salvaguardia del grande patrimonio di Venezia per questa e le future generazioni.È grazie alla grande tradizione musicale di Venezia, e al supporto e preservazione da parte delle famiglie della Repubblica della Serenissima, che abbiamo questa musica oggi.Senza la musica Liturgica Veneziana e i grandi progressi apportati da Monteverdi con la polifonia, non si sarebbe mai sviluppata la grande tradizione corale in Inghilterra, Francia, e Germania. Senza le opere di Monteverdi, Cavalli e Vivaldi, non solo non sarebbero stati inventati gli ultimi stili dell’Opera, ma non ci sarebbero state le basi neppure per il Musical Americano o per l’Operetta tedesca e viennese, la Zarzuela spagnola, e persino il rock, la musica pop e la musica contemporanea non sarebbero come li conosciamo.Per maggiori informazioni, visitate il sito: www.venicemusicproject.it.
