About APM

APM is an international classical music management agency based in Vicenza, Italy. With almost 20 years experience in organising concerts, managing artists, ensemble and orchestra tours, producing CDs, recordings and contemporary music world premieres, we have built our reputation on the care we devote to the logistics and organisational part of our work. We work closely with artists, promoters and theaters to provide top quality professional support and guarantee the great success of each performance and project.

Founded in 2000 by its President Prof. Alessandro Panetto, APM has grown very quickly from a mainly local-focused artistic agency to an international reality with an increasing network of partners in Europe, Asia and South America.

At the heart of our agency there is a passion for classical music: Alessandro Panetto is a musician himself (piano – flute), graduated from the Conservatorio A. Pedrollo of Vicenza (Italy). Thanks to his deep knowledge of classical music and his refined artistic sensibility, he pays great attention to programms and audiences. The team supports him in the logistic, organisational and administrative part of the business.

We operate in different countries such as: Italy, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, UK, Czech Republic, Finland, Spain, Portugal, Holland, Russia, China, Japan, South Korea, Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Chile, Peru and others.

Beside our roster of artists, in the last years we have cooperated with many performers ranging from soloists to symphony orchestras, from conductors to ensembles and can count on special projects with opera singers and choirs. To quote some of the artists APM has been working with: London Philharmonic Orchestra, Philharmonia Orchestra, Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Tchaikovsky Symphony Orchestra, Sofia Philharmonic Orchestra, PKF – Prague Philharmonia, Kansai Philharmonic, Christoph Eschenbach, Vladimir Fedoseyev, Jordi Savall, Mischa Maisky, Augustin Dumay, Ilya Gringolts, Andrei Gavrilov, Giuseppe Gibboni, among the others.

In addition to our concert management activity, APM is also promoter of cultural events and producer of important CD recordings edited by leading labels such as Deutsche Grammophon, Decca and Naxos.

On Janaury 2017 APM has joined and become a full member of IAMA International Artists Managers’ Association and, in July 2022, part of the team attended the IAMA Artist Management Academy dedicated to the improvement of our skills and strengths and to the use of social media in the artistic world. Every year, we take part in training courses to increase our skills and offer a more complete and increasingly professional service.

Our seat is in the surrounding area of the city of Vicenza in Northern Italy. Our city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
