Episodio speciale in italiano – Special episode in Italian Join me for the first part of an informative and lively conversation with musicians Eric Buffat and Maurizio Tomberli, founders of Florence Academy, a modern music school, housed in a Renaissance palazzo in the heart of downtown Florence. In this episode, we talk about how Florence Academy shapes young musicians and transforms them into savvy artists able to navigate skillfully all aspects of today’s music industry. We also converse about the many ways that Florence inspires musical creativity and why the city is an ideal place to study, write, and make music. We also provide details on how to enroll in their BA Program, as well as how to do what they call their “DIY Program” for those coming to Florence for a short period of time and would like to continue learning and playing music in this harmonious and uplifting community of artists.
