La Romantica Chamber Series is a nonprofit cultural initiative that strives to bring innovative, immersive chamber music concerts to Ticino, in the small town lakeside town of Melide, Switzerland. In collaboration with the 5-star Swiss Diamond Boutique Hotel - La Romantica, the series combines world-class music with storytelling, dance, theater, and literature, creating weekends where artistry and hospitality meet.

Each concert is unique, exploring its own theme and blending classical masterpieces with contemporary interpretation. The first edition, “Living Legacy”, celebrates tradition while giving young Swiss and Swiss-related musicians a stage to premiere works, collaborate, and experiment, fostering dialogue between performers and audiences.

Set in the middle of Lake Lugano and surrounded by mountains, the hotel provides the series with a true refuge for creation and experiences, where audiences can immerse themselves in music, nature, and reflection. After each performance, artists and audiences engage directly, breaking traditional boundaries and creating a space for conversation, connection, and inspiration.

Through innovative programs, interdisciplinary collaboration, and a commitment to accessibility, the La Romantica Chamber Series champions emerging talent, expands cultural offerings for locals and visitors, and reimagines what a chamber music concert can be: a transformative, shared experience where music, movement, and storytelling come alive.
