MUSIKKAPELLE “CORPO MUSICALE DI CORTINA D'AMPEZZO”
The "Corpo Musicale di Cortina d’Ampezzo" marching band was founded in 1861.
Its repertoire today includes marches, classical pieces, light music, film music, original compositions by contemporary composers, and sacred music such as Christmas carols. It performs in concerts and parades both in Italy and abroad.
Every year, during the last week of August, the "Corpo Musicale" organizes the Festival of the Bands: bands and folk groups from all over Italy animate the center of Cortina with concerts, parades, carousels at the sound of traditional music.
