In the heart of Bologna, in via Guerrazzi 13, on the ground floor of the Accademia Filarmonica there is the Sala Mozart, so named in homage to the young Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, who in 1770 carried out the exam which earned him the title of Accademico Filarmonico. Over the years, the Sala Mozart has become a concert hall and, with its perfect acoustics, today it welcomes the best musicians of the Italian and international scene as well as the best students of the most important Italian music schools.
