Interpreti Veneziani made their debut in 1987, immediately gaining a reputation for the youthful exuberance and all-Italian brio characterizing their performance. For the last 20 years, they have performed their own season consisting of more than 200 concerts at Venice’s San Vidal Church.

The talent of this group, their expertise as soloists and ensemble musicians and the high level of their performances has earned Interpreti Veneziani an enthusiastic welcome from both audiences and critics. The Royal Gazette called their performance “a dream evening of exquisite music and musicianship.

Important achievements include appearances in the Bayruth Festival and concerts at Stockholm’s Royal Palace, participation in the World Vision telemarathon at the Kirov Theatre to mark the reinstatement of the name St. Petersburg, a concert at the Osaka Symphony Hall in live broadcast for Japanese radio, concerts at the Tokyo Suntory Hall and Kjoi Hall and appearances in glamorous concert seasons such as those of Sapporo and Yokohama during four tours in Japan. The Interpreti Veneziani presented two tours in Australia (Melbourne, Ballarat, Perth), has been invited many times to South America (Bahamas, Mexico, Venezuela, Guatemala, Colombia) and began touring the United States in 2007.

Interpreti Veneziani's recording activity includes production of a first compact disc with music publishers Musikstrasse with music by Giuseppe Tartini and 16 compact discs recorded with Rivo Alto.
