Acclaimed Italian art critic Vittorio Sgarbi this weekend visited the “Il Hagar – Heart of Gozo” Museum/Cultural Centre in Victoria, Gozo. As part of the visit, Sgarbi spent time at the Joseph Vella Music Archive, familiarising himself with Vella`s musical accomplishments and some of his best known compositions.

Joseph Vella`s Music Archive includes original manuscripts and scores of his classified works, besides a variety of mementos and other items delineating the highlights of his career. They may be viewed or consulted by music professionals, students and/or the general public at Il-Hagar accordingly.

A special word of thanks to the dedicated team at Il-Hagar, for contributing to keep Maestro Joseph Vella`s music alive.
