The
"Renzo Trevisan" Centre of Piano
Studies is aimed at diffusing music training through lessons, seminars, concerts
and all other activities which are directed towards the knowledge of piano and
its various aspects of interpretation which range from the analysis of
literature for piano, performance issues, the acquisition and the
development of a technique suitable for interpretive needs.
Even
though means of communication insistently propose
music solely for mass consumption the amount of people who demonstrate a
particular interest in "classical" music are more numerous that what is thought.
However, we must admit that those who operate in the sector
of "classical" music often contribute to distancing this type of music from the
world today because a much too small and restricted space of time is dedicated
to its presentation. Concert rituals for example have above all become to appear
anachronistic to a majority of young people and this of course leads to a more
selective and scanty audience. Also the study of a musical instrument is carried
out at two extremes, at one end there is compulsory education which only offers
an initial approach to the use of sounds and, at the other, the conservatory
of music
which offers only a specific education which has the sole aim of creating
professional musicians and for this an exclusive commitment is required.
Between these two extremes a very
interesting dimension can be found which fully responds to the ethical content
of art: a universal language that is comprehensible and in reach of all those
who have an interest in it. Music is a gift for all and each one of us can begin
and cultivate it at any age, obtaining good results, making progress and
refining one’s own artistic sensitivity at whatever level, whether basic or
advanced.

" Music is one’s right, but only for those who deserve it! "
