Association Collegium Pro Musica: The International Festival of Chamber Music
“The Festival of Chamber Music (formerly named as “I Concerti dell’Ateneo” and then “Genova Musica Antica”) is the concert event that the Collegium Pro Musica Association has been organizing for more than ten years: launched in 1994, dedicated to the great chamber music with a special predilection for the baroque and classical repertoire, it is the most important summer event in Genoa in the field of the classical and baroque music.
The Festival will take place from mid-June until the end of July in some historical or prestigious places in the centre of the cities of Genoa and Savona. Formerly organized only in Genoa, the Festival has then expanded to Savona and, today, it has consolidated itself as a concert event proposing soloists and bands of international level coming from all over Italy, from Europe and the United States.
The concert activity of the Association does not end in the city of Genoa, or in the region of Liguria. Since 2001, the Collegium Pro Musica has been organizing in the city of Turin another important event, named as “Le Vie del Barocco” ("the Baroque Ways"), a cycle of concerts dedicated to the music repertoire of the XVII and XVIII centuries, expressly thought for the city of Turin in its capacity as the Baroque capital of Northern Italy. From 2007 the Festival of Turin has been incorporated in the Genoa International Festival of Chamber Music - now taking place in the three towns of Genoa, Turin and Savona - and transfered to it his denomination "Le Vie del Barocco".

“La Pellegrina was founded in 1988 by dancer Dorothée Wortelboer and musician Dirkjan Horringa for the organization of summer schools abroad. In the first years of La Pellegrina the courses were held in Italy, with historical dance and -music as subject. Since 1991 the courses have acquired a much wider scope and take place in the Czech Republic, this summer for the 22nd (!) time. …
La Pellegrina focuses on music from the Baroque, the Classical period, the Romantic era and the 20th/21st century. The courses in the Czech Republic focus on the rich Czech music culture. But there will also be attention for the German, Hungarian and Slovakian composers, who belong after all to the same cultural area. In the autumn course in France the music once played at the court of Louis XIV, at nearby Versailles, will be the main subject. …”

“Language and Music for Life was born in Spring 1997 and is committed to providing training in both music and foreign languages to students of all ages, with a lower age limit of 10 years old for the main Summer course, from 3 to 10 years old for the Peter Pan Course and no upper age limit.
The first LMFL summer course was held in 1997 and has grown in size and quality ever since.
Our music and language project functions in a context which is rich in individual ability, motivation, language, culture and generations.
Learning is not to be restricted to its manifestation in performance, though this is an essential part, but is to be intimately linked to the dynamics of the whole individual who is able to learn while changing, and able to change while learning.
Our linguistic premise: a language is learned not just for its own sake but also for a purpose. Language is used to communicate, to organise music making with others, to facilitate professional development and because we want to enjoy exchanges with those whom we have chosen to be with, and like, and because we don't want to live like a "foreigner" in an English speaking environment.
We learn a language to live and, as the name of our organisation puts it, to survive. …”

“The artistically inclined Margravine Wilhelmine, one of the most important female personalities of 18th-Century Germany, transformed the Royal Seat Bayreuth into a radiant cultural metropolis. Still today the splendor of the buildings and charm of the gardens fascinate city visitors from near and far.
We are eternally indebted to the influence of this Prussian princess for creating a courtly "ensemble" in Bayreuth with French, Italian and German artists. The "Neues Schloss" (New Palace) with court gardens, "Schlosspark" (Palace Park), "Eremitage" with "Sommerschloss" (Summer Residence), "Ruinentheater" (Theater in the Ruins) "Wasserspielen" (Water Fountain), the "Felsengarten Sanspareil" (Cliff Gardens Sanspareil) - also with Theater in the Ruins - and Wilhelmine's favorite, her Margravial Opera House, can be counted among her substantial creations.
In just four years the construction was completed in 1748. At the time, this Bayreuth opera house was only comparable in size and grandeur with those in Vienna, Dresden, Paris and Venice. Completely intact even today, the theater interior radiates a festive and cheerful atmosphere.
Experience the magic of the Baroque in a performance in the Margravial Opera House and take a stroll on the historical path of Bayreuth's patron of the arts, Princess Wilhelmine. …”

“Begun on a shoestring in 1995, the Stoke Newington Early Music Festival has grown and flourished through the years. Generously supported by local businesses — but always independent of public funding — it is now an indispensable feature of the Stoke Newington summer, enjoyed by local residents and by lovers of early music from everywhere.
