Great attention is paid to the promotion of each concert, working closely with the local tourist boards and advertising in 'What's On' guides and events listings produced by local tourist offices.
We produce posters and flyers that are widely distributed on the days leading up to each concert, hold bi-annual press conferencesand submit press reviews and adverts in the arts and culture section of local and national newspapers, radios and TV. Our promotional material is of a high standard which helps us to secure better publicity and hence maximum audiences for each concert.
For us it is most important that each orchestra plays to large, appreciative audiences during their tours. The timing and location of concerts are carefully planned to maximise audience potential. We guarantee that we will do our utmost to maximise your audience potential and we typically have very good responses from the audience!

A thousand young musicians from all over
Europe are gathering together for the 4th International Festival
of European Youth Orchestras courtesy of Accademia San Felice. 14
concerts in Florence, and another 70 with free entrance in historical
piazzas of the region - Siena, Lucca, Montecatini, Arezzo and also,
elsewhere, La Spezia and Camerino. The musicians represent 7 EC
countries, Switzerland, Romania and Australia.
The entire program revolves around the full set of Concertos for
Piano and Orchestra by Beethoven, starting on the 17th with the
First, played by Ju-Ping Song - the Taiwanese pianist resident of
New York, accompanied by the Swiss Winterthur Youth Orchestra.

A Thousand Young
European Musicians at Ponte Vecchio
Organised by Accademia San Felice, performances in Santo Stefano
FLORENCE- ... the 4th edition of the International Festival of European Youth Orchestras, from 13th to 30th July in Santo Stefano al Ponte Vecchio, witnesses the accumulation of an initiative which is no doubt emblematic of upmost care and presumably also courage and devoted organisation, when one considers what moving a thousand or so budding musicians - the majority of whom are under 18 -involves.
Accademia San Felice has succeeded over years of work in creating
a real personal network of contacts and exchanges with dozens of
youth training opportunities dedicated to classical music.

Musicians Storm the Town for Orchestra Festival
Beginning tonight in la Chiesa di Santo Stefano, the parade
of Accademia San Felice, with protagonists from all over the world.
As part of Summer Nights ,
the new edition of the International Festival of European Youth
Orchestras held by Accademia San Felice begins tonight. A valuable
opportunity to listen to young european (and worldwide) music groups,
performing 14 concerts in the Chiesa di Santo Stefano al Ponte Vecchio,
concluding on 30th July.
There are 8 European nations represented, with England at the top
of the list with no less than 4 concerts, followed by Holland, Romania,
Ireland, Switzerland, Belgium and France, joined also by a few American
and Australian fellow musicians. A truly ‘global’ festival
therefore, with an added 60 or so free concerts in various piazzas
of several Tuscan towns, includibg Lucca, Montecatini, Siena and
Arezzo. |
