The Foundation
A vivid memory, a dream that goes on
We preserve Maestro Pavarotti's memory through major events around the world, young voices and the visit to his home
The Luciano Pavarotti Foundation is a non-profit organisation with a twofold goal: to keep Maestro Pavarotti's human and artistic memory alive through major events around the world and to support deserving young opera singers.
Maestro Pavarotti used his great talent to bring opera to a worldwide audience of millions.
Out of the ordinary in many different ways, his spectacular voice - combined with his disarming charisma - touched the hearts of many, and his generosity had no limits. His achievements placed him in the Olympus of artists, but the most significant legacy he left us is the importance of promoting music, art and culture and the duty to share passion, knowledge and talent with others.
The man and the artist
The Foundation's activities unfold in various fields.
It organises concerts and recitals all over the world with the participation of great international music stars as well as young emerging singers to whom it offers opportunities for training, visibility and success.
With major exhibitions and displays, it presents Luciano Pavarotti both as an artist and as a man and pays tribute to his iconic profile.
In addition, the Foundation has created a permanent “monument” to Maestro's life by turning his last residence in Modena into a museum, getting to know his daily habits, and discovering the family man he was once behind the scenes.
