A voyage of music and song amid the highest peaks of the Alps. Choir singing is one of the most deeply rooted and profoundly felt manifestations of the traditions of the Aosta Valley, and the choirs in the region have always paid great attention to seeking out new songs from the vast musical heritage that is part of the culture of the Aosta Valley.
The Regional Assembly is a showcase where visitors can not only take a close look at the splendid traditional costumes the singers wear for the occasion, but also enjoy the fine singing and dancing of the various groups.
