Via del Campo 29 Rosso, Music museum in Genoa, Italy
Via del Campo 29 Rosso is a music museum in Genoa that tells the story of Italian songwriting. Six multimedia stations display photographs, personal belongings, and musical scores from local artists.
Gianni Tassio's music and instrument shop, Musica Gianni Tassio, occupied the site until 2010 and was frequented by Fabrizio De André. After De André's death in 1999, Tassio assembled a display there; Tassio died in 2004 and his widow Daniela ran the shop until its closure. The Comune di Genova bought the premises at auction and opened the museum in 2012.
The space honors the Genoese songwriting tradition and shows how local artists shaped Italian music history. Visitors can see handwritten scores and personal belongings that document the creative lives of these musicians.
A mobile application helps visitors navigate the exhibitions and learn more about the collections. The app provides information about current events and allows visitors to explore independently during their visit.
The space functions both as an exhibition area and as a venue for musical and poetry workshops and events. This creates a living dialogue between the collections and current creative activity.
