U.E.C.A., United European Culture Association, operates in the field of music, entertainment and art. We organize a music summer course in Tuscany, in San Donato in Poggio, a wonderful medieval town between Florence and Siena. The instrument courses are aimed at both high school students and middle school students. Amateur musicians are welcome and can participate in the activities of the string orchestra. U.E.C.A. is managed by artists and entertainment professionals who, thanks to their long experience, are able to put their competence at the service of organizations, companies, associations and citizens.

Music Summer Courses in Tuscany:
For both high school students and middle school students. Each year the event comprises instrumental lessons and musical ensemble, musical aperitifs, concerts and recitals.

6 days of lessons from July 21st to 26th (inclusive), with one one-to-one lesson daily
The repertorie: the courses will cover repertoire of all periods, including contemporary music
Chamber music: groups are made up with students from the same instrumental course or playing different instruments

The instrument courses are aimed at both high school students and middle school students. Some junior children have also participated in the past, accompanied by their parents to San Donato.

The instrument lessons are individual, and therefore modulated on the level of the student. In general, all students are invited to listen to their classmates' lessons as well.

Amateur musicians are welcome and can participate in the activities of the string orchestra. In this case, however, a short video is required (also home made) to know their instrumental level.
