The Fair features 125 events, including concerts, presentations, conferences and round tables with some 300 performers and speakers.
Cremona is known as the birthplace of the world's most celebrated luthiers, whose production dominated the world of string instruments for over two centuries, starting with Andrea Amati (1500-1577), The art reached perfection with Antonio Stradivari and Guameri del Gesu, whose instruments have never been surpassed and are still coveted by both professional soloists and collectors.
