Normale and Mascagni. The Talent of Music
Thanks to the collaboration with the Conservatorio Statale di Musica "Pietro Mascagni", the Scuola Normale is promoting another initiative designed to enhance the musical culture of all generations and to bring out young talent.
The agreement, initiated in 2023, involves the organisation of concerts, meetings and teaching activities; its first initiative was a series of classical music concerts, with free entry, which took place in May 2024.
The protagonist of this year's cycle is jazz, with four group concerts by brilliant students of the Conservatorio Mascagni, each accompanied by an introductory lecture by teachers and students of the same Conservatory.
