GENERAL INFORMATION

The masterclass includes daily sessions in which students will be able to explore in depth the historical approach to repertoire ranging from the early Baroque period through Romanticism.
Technical aspects will be addressed to support the development of virtuosity in instrumental writing, and for those who wish, it will be possible to design a daily study plan aimed at mastering bow technique and achieving greater ease and fluency in the left hand.

Participation is possible with violin, viola, or both.

Within the framework of the Chigiana International Festival 2026, some students may have the opportunity to perform in concert together with the professors of the Baroque Program.
