Upcoming Events

VOCAL, FLUTE & PIANO MASTERCLASS INTENSIVE

Hone your artistry in a focused and free environment. Experiment, learn and grow.

The program is tailor-made for musicians, working alongside others on body awareness, repertoire, technique, and performance. On a daily basis, each artist has lessons, coachings and participation in the masterclasses.

Each participant will have the opportunity to do the following:

◘ Daily One-on-One coachings
◘ Italian language classes
◘ Daily masterclasses
◘ Public performances
◘ Home-cooked meals and accommodations
◘ Excursions to breathtaking wineries
◘ The chance to attend an opera at the Verona Amphitheatre

EXCURSIONS

Experience Your Surroundings. Our Philosophy = Work Hard, Play Hard.

On top of their training, our students have the opportunity to get away from their studies and
experience a day in the historic city of Verona. The students will be taken together by bus and will have the chance to explore at their own leisure, the sites of the city. This day trip is not a tour, therefore the students can roam freely and meet up once again in the evening. Wandering by Juliette’s balcony, shopping in many of the beautiful Italian stores or sitting in a cafe in the piazza del erbe, enjoying an Aperol Spritz, are just a few of many options for the students on their day off. When the clock strikes eight, the students will gather at the roman amphitheatre for a night under the stars, to take in an opera.

Other activities throughout their time in Breno may include exploring a nearby winery.

*Excursions are not part of the tuition

Robyn P.Vocal Intensive

BIIMA has very qualified teachers who are kind but demanding. They are clear about what they want and expect from us and they organized a lot of varied performance opportunities for us.

Jessica E.Vocal Intensive

BIIMA met my expectations by providing wonderful coaching sessions, with amazing, experienced singers and with collaborative pianists. BIIMA (and specifically Breno) was a great location for the summer program as I felt very immersed in Italian culture, but not overwhelmed, because Breno is such an intimate small town. I was really happy that we had classes like Italian with Paola, as she was extremely knowledgeable of the language (as it is her first) and it really helped improve my singing and Italian language overall.

Julia J.Vocal Masterclass

The daily masterclasses were so helpful even if I wasn't the one performing. The energy and enthusiasm brought by all the teachers each day is contagious and so inspiring.

Julianne P.Vocal Intensive

I love the environment of love and mutual respect that the teachers create. I found a place where I can grow and learn in a safe and respectful environment.

Vocal Intensive

The BIIMA experience has been many things for me. Being here, and challenged daily, I began to realize that I am capable as an artist. I think it pushed me to become more in tune with who I am and what I have to offer on stage. In this way, the class exceeded my expectations. I never thought I would begin in to feel more comfortable with myself in performance in such a short period of time.
