Course Description
Instrumental Performance courses are ideal for students who would like to develop their performing skills in a wide variety of instruments (all instruments of the violin family, brass instruments, piano, saxophone, guitar, percussion instruments, and more) while studying abroad. Students are assigned to a dedicated instructor who designs an individualized program based on the student’s needs and their home institution’s requirements. At the end of the semester, students are asked to perform either a solo or an ensemble for the public. 

Classes are taught in English and are either held at the Umbra Institute or local music schools, located in the center of Perugia. Interested students must contact the Umbra Institute ahead of time in order to understand the most suitable program for their level, as well as expected goals.

Course Materials
Handouts will be provided by the instructor.

Course Fee
350 $ for the 1-credit course (15 contact hours); 700 $ for the 2-credit course (30 contact hours)
