History
The establishment of the Pro Musica e Cultura Foundation goes back to a meeting between Marguerite Staehelin and Albert Roman, which took place in the United States in 1992. Marguerite Staehelin (1906–2000), a native of Basel, Switzerland, moved to New York following World War II and founded the Swiss Music Library to promote the contemporary Swiss music scene and its performers.
Albert Roman, cellist, conductor, and owner of an attractive building plot on Lake St. Moritz, came up with the idea of building a house for musicians and artists at this inspiring spot.
The Pro Musica e Cultura Foundation was established in December 1997 to enable the construction of Chesa da Cultura as a house dedicated to artists and their work. Albert Roman supplied the Foundation with the building plot, while Marguerite Staehelin provided the financial means for the actual construction. In the winter of 1998, Chesa da Cultura was inaugurated with an impressive concert.
The motto of Chesa da Cultura is “Artistic and Creative Exchange & Development”.
