Master courses in music studies

The Master Courses in Music Studies, established by a state law in 1939, are acknowledged by the Italian Ministry of Instruction, University and Research, which confirms the diploma awarded on completion of the three year’s programme of study. Many illustrious musicians have taught these courses (to mention a few, Alfredo Casella, Franco Ferrara, Bernardino Molinari, Goffredo Petrassi) and numerous excellent students have attended them (among others, Carlo Maria Giulini, Guido Turchi, Roman Vlad, Daniel Baremboim).
The principal aim of these courses, admission to which is subject to an entrance audition, is that of offering young music graduates with evident performing skills the chance to gain further qualification and professional experience in the concert field.

Among the many facilities offered, students are entitled to free use of the study rooms and pianos at the Academy's headquarters in Via Vittoria for individual study; they have the opportunity to attend the rehearsals of the Santa Cecilia Orchestra; they are granted special reductions on the cost of tickets for the symphonic and chamber music concert seasons; special discounts at the shops and restaurants at the Auditorium Parco della Musica and special rates at hotels and B&B nearby the Academy's headquarters in Via Vittoria and the Auditorium Parco della Musica; they also receive a Bibliomediateca card for privileged access to the Academy's multi-media library.

Instrumental courses are also open to auditors.
