NB: Exceptionally, in addition to the usual 10 guitar students, this year the Volterra Project opens the inscriptions to 4 additional flute students. Established duos are most welcome!
The Volterra Project is an innovative experiment in classical guitar training offering a 360 degree formative course with highest level guitar master classes, music physiology training, and arts business management seminars taught by experienced, internationally renowned professionals.
The mission of the Volterra Project is to help young guitarists develop well-rounded and non-competitive approaches to performing, to foster a generation of accomplished young guitarists who are prepared for the multiple aspects of performing careers, and to bring the guitar outside traditional performance venues into places of community access.
Presentation of the 2013 Edition
It is with great pleasure that I announce the 7th edition of the Volterra Project, Summer Guitar Institute... a special edition! On August 2 we will meet again in the hills across from the medieval city of Volterra in Tuscany, Italy, for 8 more days of intense work and creative learning in one of the most enchanting and inspiring settings of the world!
This year the Volterra Project will have (just for fun) a title: “New York City comes to Volterra”
Only for this edition, we are breaking our customary rules in two ways:
- all the teachers and artists will come from New York City
- in addition to the usual 10 guitar students we will open the inscription for 4 flute students
This year, in fact, our usual curriculum will be enriched by flute and guitar chamber music. Each group will exceptionally receive an extra lesson on guitar and flute repertoire.
