Master Courses for Orchestral Instruments

The master courses for orchestral instruments are post-graduate courses aimed at instrumentalists in possession of outstanding playing qualities who want to pursue a professional career in music. The courses are taught by the Principals of the Orchestra of the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia.

The course is organized over a three-year period (exceptions may be permitted for annual/biennal program); at the end of each year, upon request, a certificate of attendance will be issued, while at the end of the three-year period a Certificate of Merit will be issued from Santa Cecilia National Academy.

Particularly deserving students may be involved in artistic activities organized during the year, such as, for example, the participation in the concerts of the Ensemble Novecento.
