AT the Blues Festival

AL Blues Festival is a festival dedicated to music, specifically the blues and its evolution (including electric blues and rock-blues ). The festival, curated by the Alec Association in collaboration with the Municipality of Alba (with contributions from the CRC Foundation and Banca d'Alba), actively involves the local community and local communities, from students from the "P. Gallizio" Art School to the "L. Rocca" Music Institute , the "L. Da Vinci" Music School , and local cultural associations.
