The opening day and the organizers

A comforting data regarding the regional music market comes from the Monza and Brianza Chamber of Commerce. In fact, Lombardy once again holds the leadership of the region the queen of music with 20.3% of the sector's companies, while Milan continues to strengthen its role as an expanding Italian Music City, with over 2,700 events a year and a turnover for concerts of approximately 49 million euros (SIAE data 2018), 950 companies in constant growth (up 0.2% in the last year, + 4.3% in five years and equal to 9.6 % of the national total), about 7,000 employees working in the sector (6,964, equal to 13% nationally). This is also why the motto of Milan Music Week 2019 will be "Music live here". A slogan chosen by the organizing committee composed of: Municipality of Milan – Department of Culture, Siae (Italian Society of Authors and Publishers), Fimi (Italian Music Industry Federation), Assomusica (Association of Italian organizers and producers of live musical performances) and Newimaie (New Institute of Mutualistic Artists Performers), with the sponsorship of the Mibact (Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Activities and Tourism). The inaugural day will open with an event at the Piccolo Tetro in Milan, where in the company of Amadeus the next Sanremo Festival will be discussed.
