Mirella Freni E.T.S. Association

A commitment to music and culture

In 2025, on the initiative of her family and a group of friends, theMirella Freni E.T.S. Association was founded to remember the Modenese soprano, a figure of artistic reference in Italy and the world, and to pass on the human, ethical and cultural values of which she was an example.
