The Orchestra will also perform to inaugurate Fiera Didacta 2025, which will take place in Florence (Fortezza da Basso) from March 12 to 14 and will also be dedicated to this important anniversary.
Since 1925 INDIRE studies and develops new teaching models, explores the use of emerging technologies in education, and redefines the relationship between learning spaces and time.
The ensemble will consist of around 50 young musicians from over 30 European Conservatoires and music institutes partnering in the EO project, all of whom have either completed or are currently undertaking an Erasmus experience. Their repertoire will feature works by renowned European composers such as Bach, Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven.
The event is organized in collaboration with the “L. Cherubini” Conservatoire of Florence.
Participation is free upon registration.
What is the Erasmus Orchestra?
The initiative holds symbolic significance and aims to spread the values of the “Erasmus Generation” – open, dynamic, and supportive – and of Europe, using music as a metaphor for integration, meeting, and the development of skills beyond linguistic, geographic, and cultural barriers.
The Orchestra also aims to promote the many Erasmus+ training and mobility opportunities for students in the Higher Education Artistic and Musical sector, contributing to enhancing the talents and excellence of European Conservatories and Musical Institutes. This involves promoting collaborations and partnerships that offer opportunities for internationalization and professional experiences for young musicians.
