MERITAcubed is the second edition of the MERITA platform – Music, cultural hERItage, TAlent – designed and coordinated by Le Dimore del Quartetto and co-funded by the Creative Europe Programme of the European Union. Cadenza Arts Management is a project partner.
MERITAcubed is a European platform dedicated to supporting emerging chamber music ensembles, strengthening their visibility, mobility and professional development across Europe. Building on the first MERITA project, it brings together musicians, cultural organisations, heritage sites and audiences through an international network of online and offline activities.
Running from September 2025 to August 2029, the project supports 56 string quartets and piano trios through training, concerts, artistic residencies, showcases, networking and innovative digital tools. Sustainability, inclusion, audience engagement and new models of international cultural cooperation are at the heart of the programme.
Cadenza's role
As a Platform Member, Cadenza contributes to the international circulation of the ensembles participating in MERITAcubed. Over the course of the project, Cadenza is responsible for the production and organisation of seven concerts — four featuring string quartets and three featuring piano trios — selected from artistic projects developed by the participating ensembles during their training.
Cadenza also takes part in the project’s international networking, transnational meetings, communication and dissemination activities, contributing its experience in artist management, concert production and international cultural cooperation.
