Fontane di Roma Youth Orchestra
Fontane di Roma is made up of young musicians, trained in the most accredited Italian academies and winners of important international competitions. It was born from the desire to create a space, run exclusively by young people, where they can grow by making music together. The startup’s primary mission is to engage the new generation and the wider public with a form of music that is often perceived as remote or challenging to appreciate. By leveraging the authenticity and energy of the young, they offer a more accessible and groundbreaking cultural experience, making the enjoyment of music more immediate and innovative for all audiences. Ultimately, a challenge to experiment with new communication strategies to intercept that audience which has not yet had the opportunity to discover the fascination of music. The 60-member orchestra was founded in 2020 and has already had the opportunity to perform concerts at prestigious institutions, in the presence of the President of the Italian Republic and the highest state officials. It has been a guest in the reviews of Italian festivals and Roman theatres and churches.
On several occasions it has benefited from the patronage of the Ministry of the Interior, Ministry of Culture, City of Rome. In 2023, he had the honour of performing, in the presence of Academy Award winner Nicola Piovani, his composition “Il canto dei neutrini” OGFR, thanks to collaboration with local institutions and with the patronage of the Italian Embassy
and of the Italian Institute of Culture, has the opportunity to perform and carry out specific activities in the United Arab Emirates, in Dubai, as part of a larger project of cultural exchange.

The Mohammed Bin Rashid Library (MBRL) opened in June 2022 and immediately became one of Dubai’s icons due to its lectern-inspired architecture.

Exceptionally, the Mohammed Bin Rashid Library will host the Fontane di Roma Youth Orchestra for a symphonic music concert for selected guests as well as Italian and local Authorities. The ambassador of Italy to the United Arab Emirates, Lorenzo Fanara, commented: “the concerts of the Fontane di Roma youth orchestra in Dubai confirm once again the close cultural ties between Italy and the United Arab Emirates. After the concerts of the La Scala orchestra in Milan and the Puccini Festival in Torre del Lago, Italian music continues to demonstrate the power of culture to create bridges of dialogue, also through young people.”
The Director of the Italian Cultural Institute of Abu Dhabi, Susanna Iacona Salafia, believes that “events related to the Italian tradition of every musical genre, from classical to modern, are now multiplying in the United Arab Emirates, enjoying great success with the public, a tangible sign of the appreciation and particular appreciation that they meet with the Emirati population. Italian music is therefore one of the important keys to open the doors of fruitful cultural exchanges between our two peoples, with our gaze always turned to the beauty of the world’s variety. “Antonio Cipriani is helping Lucia in this amazing project.
