Beginning in 2013, the Piccola Accademia residency program will offer to harpsichordists the opportunity to study and record on the Accademia’s harpsichord collection. The residencies are of variable lengths, based on the needs of each candidate, with a maximum stay of three weeks.
Besides unlimited use of the harpsichord collection, the Accademia will provide a comfortable apartment with kitchen and a bathroom at the Accademia’s home, the Castello in Montisi.
The residents must cover their own travel costs and living expenses.
The Piccola Accademia offers a pick up from Sinalunga or Buonconvento train stations on arrival and departure.
The residency period for 2013:
- May 1 to October 30
The residency is open for professional harpsichordists or harpsichord students currently enrolled in a university level music study.
All applications are reviewed by the Piccola Accademia and considered in collaboration with a selection of our professors, past and present: Bob van Asperen, Jesper Christensen, Menno van Delft, Ketil Hausand, Elisabeth Joyé, Jacques Ogg, Christophe Rousset and Skip Sempe.
