Lmfl has chosen Florence (Italy) for its second summer course 2017. The course will be hosted under the auspices of the Conservatorio Luigi Cherubin at the Villa Favard di Rovezzano which is the oldest part of the Conservatorio site, in the middle of a substantial magical botanical park with roses and Cedar trees Villa Favard di Rovezzano has a large number of piano studios (including grand pianos) lots of music studios and a concert hall Florence Firenze is the capital city of the Italian region of Tuscany and birthplace of the Renaissance. It is home to masterpieces of art and architecture and was at the heart of much of our entire Western musical tradition. It was here that the Florentine Camerata convened in the mid-16th century and experimented with setting tales of Greek mythology to music and staging the result—in other words, the first operas, setting the wheels in motion not just for the further development of the operatic form, but for later developments of separate “classical” forms such as the symphony. This seems an ideal setting for our course where we can enjoy working in the midst of beauty, elegance and serenity We welcome students from + 17 years old and upwards. We also welcome younger advanced students accompanied by at least one parent. All students must be advanced level in at least one discipline, other choices can be at lower level.
