Rome CIVIS Orchestra Academy 2025
The virtual component of the program will consist of six sessions, to be developed through Google Meet, which would be easily available. This will also be a good format to introduce musical scholarship together with musical performance issues in the BIP. In every session there would be additional material (texts, recordings...), and a final assessment activity. Rehearse and perform within a symphonic orchestra of around 70 elements two masterpieces of the '800/'900: Respighi's "Pines of Rome" and Dvorak's "New World" Symphony.

Academic pre-requisites for applicants
Music proficiency pre-requisites will certainly apply in this BIP, since the aim of the physical mobility part is to rehearse and perform two important works of the symphonic European tradition. While the these works can be rated with a medium level of difficulty, there must be a pre-selection of participating students by the conductors of the different orchestras or music ensembles, in order to ensure that participation in this BIP is not open to those students with limited musical proficiency.
