To mark the tenth anniversary of Pirelli’s corporate libraries, the Pirelli Foundation presents Can You Play Me a Story? Travelling through Books with Music. This concert-reading event is created in partnership with the Orchestra Sinfonica di Milano for upper-primary school pupils and lower-secondary school students. The event will take place on Tuesday 27 October 2026 at 10.30 a.m. in the Auditorium at the Pirelli Headquarters in Milan.

During the event, music and the spoken word will share the stage, taking the audience on a journey through stories of friendship, bravery, growing up and discovery. The readings, selected from among some of the best-loved literary works of recent years, will be woven together with original music composed specially for the event. Played live by an ensemble of young musicians, the performance will create an engaging experience that joins the joy of reading with the emotional power of music.

This project is a clear example of the Pirelli Foundation’s ongoing commitment to promoting reading and culture, showing how stories and music can bring people together and help young minds grow.
