Briefly about:
FIMA – Italian Foundation for Early Music – formerly known as SIFD (Italian Recorder Society, founded in 1971 by Giancarlo Rostirolla) – is a non-profit organization based in Rome. FIMA publishes an annual journal called RECERCARE and maintains in Rome the BIBLIOTECA GANASSI, a library specialized in early music, musicology and organology.
Urbino Early Music Festival represents he benchmark in Early Music since half a century: born almost fifty years ago, when in Italy and in Europe the Early Music movement was taking its first steps, the Urbino Early Music Festival has collected over time an unique wealth of experience, which places it at the highest level in the field of early music training and performing.
The most prestigious performers and the most experienced teachers gather annually at this event: starting from the legendary pioneers of the sixties as F. Brüggen and G. Leonhardt, the Urbino courses have been maintaining the highest standards with the best teachers and performers of today: A. Bernardini, G. Nasillo, P. O’Dette, R. Alessandrini, S. Montanari, S. Mingardo and many others. The courses offer unique didactic chances and make possible to live the Early Music experience side by side with the most acclaimed teachers and performers.
