Dream Course in Italy

Sing or play in baroque ensemble “Le Muse”

Make music together with like-minded people in historical and inspiring locations, on dates that suite you

Deruta (Umbria), in and around Casa “Le tre Muse”

Artistic leader Onno Verschoor invites (amateur) musicians to deepen their knowledge of music from the Baroque period and to enjoy making music in an Italian atmosphere.

Advanced amateurs and students are very welcome to join the Baroque ensemble in the inspiring historical “Borgo delle Arti”, Deruta, a few kilometers from Assisi and Perugia.
The course consists of inspiring lessons, rehearsals and at least one concert and not to forget the good “Italian life”. If desired, we reserve affordable restaurants for lunches and dinners. We conclude with a presentation in the historical center and a closing dinner.

If desired, you can book an overnight stay on the website of Casa “Le tre Muse”. Here it is also possible to prepare your own meals in the kitchen. If this accommodation is fully booked, we will organize alternative accommodation.
