RaRio is a space and a cultural association.

We are located in the municipality of Roccabruna (CN), in south-western Piedmont, at the entrance to the beautiful Maira Valley, in a region rich in history, flora and fauna.

Built in wood, following ecological criteria, RaRio is a space for creation, musical and artistic residencies, research, sharing and practice of activities related to music, art, dance, awareness, and the search for new ways of experiencing mountain territories.

RaRio has a 51sq.m. Music Room, a 10sq.m. Control Room, rooms and a common living room/kitchen for reception.

We offer the possibility of residencies and musical, sound, performance and artistic work also over medium to long periods, breaking away from urban work schedules.

We offer the opportunity to organise end-of-residency open days, recorded and filmed intimate concerts, with the option of live streaming, as well as collaborations with other venues.

We favour the creation and emergence of new musical and artistic forms, encouraging encounters between people from different cultures and/or artistic languages.

We encourage creative works that engage with the surrounding foothill, mountain and alpine landscapes and all their elements, drawing on movements and practices such as Land Art, Acoustic Ecology, Field Recording …

We provide technologies and specific knowledge in the field of composition, recording and sound diffusion.

We foster encounters and exchanges between musical cultures rooted in the territory (Occitan Valleys) and the cultures of the populations that have migrated to the centres of the lower valley in recent decades.

RaRio is a space founded by Daniele Guaschino, with the desire to build a place of creation in the Maira Valley, after 25 years of living and working in France.
