Daniele Maffeis' Home in Gazzaniga Becomes Cultural Space
On August 1, 2026, the residence of composer Daniele Maffeis, located at Via Dante 54 in Gazzaniga, will be inaugurated as the Spazio Culturale M° Daniele Maffeis.

The Fondazione Daniele Maffeis, founded in 2025, oversees this endeavor, building on efforts that began in 1998 to promote Maffeis's work, including the 2012 publication of Opera Omnia. The opening will feature 'La musica e i luoghi del Maestro Daniele Maffeis,' with events commencing on September 6 in Schilpario, followed by Alzano Lombardo, Rovetta, and wrapping up on December 17 in Gazzaniga.
