2010 - Miso Music Portugal "25 YEARS"

In 2010 Miso Music Portugal celebrates its 25th anniversary.

To celebrate its 25 years of relentless activity, we will have some special commemorating events: from April 13 to 17 at the Instituto Franco-Português in Lisbon – “SEMANA DE ABRIL”/ “A WEEK IN APRIL” – and on June 11 and 12 at the Centro Cultural de Cascais (in Cascais) – “DIAS DE CASCAIS”/ “CASCAIS’DAYS”.

These two particular events in no way represent the whole spectrum of activities undertaken by Miso Music Portugal throughout the year, hence revealing the structural and vital work that it has continuously dedicated to fostering Portuguese musical creation and the Portuguese new music: dissemination and international promotion; investment in musicological research and in new technologies applied to music and performance; commitment in the preservation and communication of Portuguese musical heritage (both physically and digitally); long running devotion to the increase of Portuguese new music CDs and scores’ releases and distribution; assuring and reinforcing the presence of Portuguese pieces in concerts’ line-ups; developing several pedagogical projects through Art and drawing on new audiences’ awareness; developing the basis and projects for the exchange of composers and performers at both national and international levels.

The 2010 edition of the MÚSICA VIVA FESTIVAL – taking place from September 10th to 25th in Lisboa at the Centro Cultural de Belém/ Belém Arts Centre, the Jerónimos Monastery, Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation and the Franco-Portugais Institut - will undoubtedly play a key-role in the celebration of this anniversary.
