We are pleased to present the 2026 edition of the Capraia Musica Festival, celebrating twenty years of activity: a significant milestone for a festival founded in 2006 and which has become, over the years, a cultural reference point for the island of Capraia.
A festival that, over time, has successfully combined the quality of its musical programming with the enhancement of a unique natural setting, establishing itself also at national and international level.
This year’s programme is rich and varied, offering a line-up that brings together leading figures from the Italian and international music scene with young emerging musicians, in a dialogue between generations that represents one of the distinctive features of the artistic project.
Among the guests are major artists such as pianist Alexander Lonquich, the Quartetto di Cremona, pianist Benedetto Lupo, clarinettists Tommaso Lonquich and Riccardo Crocilla, and cellists Miriam Prandi and Alexey Zhilin, alongside young performers selected through advanced training paths and international competitions.
The concerts will take place in the most evocative locations on the island, transforming Capraia into a widespread stage where music engages in dialogue with the landscape.
Alongside the concert activity, the festival also offers experiences that combine music and nature, such as trekking concerts, giving the audience the opportunity to experience listening in an immersive way. There will also be events dedicated to younger audiences and educational activities, including masterclasses with guest artists.
This edition, celebrating the festival’s twentieth anniversary, thus confirms itself as a meeting point between high-quality music and the extraordinary beauty of Capraia, an ideal setting for an intense and engaging cultural experience. We invite you to discover the full programme and to take part in this edition of the Capraia Musica Festival.
