The Recercare Association has the following purposes:
a) musicological study and research activities of eminently regional interest aimed at enhancing the musical heritage within bibliographic and organological-instrumental sources;
b) creation of an historical documentation centre on musicians (composers, organists, singers, instrumentalists) of Rome and Lazio (14th-20th centuries);
c) setting up of a bibliographic and documentary centre of music in Lazio;
d) courses and concerts aimed at spreading music;
e) publications of musicological, bibliographical and musical iconographic research.
