The Val Tidone Summer Camp is an innovative program of summer music courses whose aim is to organize international cultural exchanges. Lessons will take place in a campus located in some beautiful castles of the Val Tidone, not unlike the US Summer Camps. Take a look at some pictures from 2009 edition by clicking here.

The lessons will be held by world-wide renown professors and musicians, such as Karl-Heinz Kämmerling, Sergej Krylov, Laura Groppi, Ratko Delorko, Ayami Ikeba, Enrico Intra and others.

The organization will offer some scholarships, concerts and tourist excursions, such as guided tours to the Val Tidone castles, to the city of Piacenza and to vineyards.

In 2010, as tradition, three international music events in the Val Tidone castles will be organized:

1. Val Tidone International Music Competitions
2. Val Tidone Summer Camp
3. Val Tidone Festival
