Everything is ready for the first edition of the Note su Carta festival , from Wednesday, November 26th to Tuesday, December 10th in Cagliari, Sestu, and Elmas . The festival is dedicated to the dissemination of books on music, to better understand authors, composers, and artists, and to promote reading and music as tools for cultural growth and personal well-being. The festival is organized by the Ennio Porrino Association of Elmas , under the guidance of artistic director Ignazio Perra , with scientific consultancy from Myriam Quaquero and the organizational secretariat of Maria Elena Garau .

Several musical performances and events are planned, including one by Luigi Lai .
