Parco della Musica

The Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia (English: National Academy of St Cecilia) is one of the oldest musical institutions in the world, founded by the papal bull Ratione congruit, issued by Sixtus V in 1585, which invoked two saints prominent in Western musical history: Gregory the Great, for whom the Gregorian chant is named, and Saint Cecilia, the patron saint of music. Since 2005 it has been headquartered at the Renzo Piano designed Parco della Musica in Rome. It was founded as a "congregation", or "confraternity", and over the centuries has grown from a forum for local musicians and composers to an internationally acclaimed academy active in music scholarship (with 100 prominent music scholars forming the body of the Accademia), music education (in its role as a conservatory) and performance (with an active choir and a symphony orchestra, the Orchestra dell'Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia). The category of alumni of the associated conservatory (which in 1919 succeeded a liceo) includes many noted composers and performers.

The Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia Musical Instruments Museum (MUSA) is the museum holding the instruments collection of musical instruments of the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia.

Minor Basilica of the Immaculate Heart of Mary (Immaculate Heart of Mary), is a titular church in Piazza Euclide, Rome. It was built by the architect Armando Brasini (1879–1965). Its construction began in 1923 with the design of a Greek cross inscribed in a circle with an articulated facade, and completed before 1936, the year in which it was made a parish church and granted to the Congregation of Missionary Sons of the Sacred Immaculate Heart of Mary, usually known as the Claretian Missionaries. A grand dome was planned, but never realized; a smaller drum was completed in 1951. Pope John XXIII elevated it to the rank of Minor Basilica in May 1959, and Pope Paul VI made it a titular church in February 1965, with Ángel Herrera Oria as the first titular. The present titular priest is Julius Riyadi Darmaatmadja S.J., appointed in 1994.

Sant'Andrea in Via Flaminia (English: Saint Andrew on Via Flaminia) is a Roman Catholic church dedicated to St Andrew the Apostle in Rome, Italy. The edifice is also known as Sant'Andrea del Vignola, after its architect Giacomo Barozzi da Vignola. It was commissioned by Pope Julius III, to commemorate Pope Clement VII’s escape from prison following the Sack of Rome, 1527. The small church on the Via Flaminia, scarcely more than a chapel, was designed by Giacomo Barozzi da Vignola in 1552 and completed the following year, while Vignola was also employed by Julius nearby at the Villa Giulia. Sant'Andrea was the first church with an elliptical dome and the first step toward the Baroque world of elliptical forms.

The ad Clivum Cucumeris Catacomb (Italian: catacomba ad clivum Cucumeris) was one of the catacombs of Rome, sited on the ancient via Salaria (today's via Paisiello, via Bertoloni and via Oriani) according to ancient sources but not yet conclusively identified with any surviving ancient remains. These sources place it last on the topographical list of Rome, after those of San Panfilo and Sant'Ermete. The Notitia ecclesiarum urbis Romae, a 7th-century pilgrims' guide, invites the faithful to visit the catacombs of San Valentino then to go along the via Salaria and—before going to Sant'Ermete—to visit the cemetery of Saint John "ad clivum cucumeris" (literally "on the watermelon hill" or "on the cucumber hill"). Other sources refer to it as sancti Ioannes ad clivum cucumeris, septem palumbae (seven pigeons), coemeterium ad caput sancti Iohannis (cemetery of St John's head). The saint John in question is a priest called John, beheaded under Julian - the head was buried in an underground basilica, whilst the rest of his body was placed in the catacomb. The ancient sources state that the same catacomb also contained the remains of Liberatus, Longinus, Diogenes and Bonifacius, and Festus and Bastus. Pasquale Testini theorises that it was near the Acqua Acetosa, whilst others have identified the clivum cucumeris as the steeply-sloped present-day via Francesco Denza, which branches off what was the via Salaria and turns towards the ancient via Flaminia. Investigations between via Denza, via Bertolini and via Mercalli by Father Umberto Maria Fasola between 1954 and 1955 led him to announce that he had discovered the catacomb. New studies place it on a diversion off the ancient via Salaria at the top of via Denza and via Oriani.
