The “Scuola Normale” Concert Season | Pisa

The Concerti della Normale, now in their 58th edition, represent a combined journey through different eras and musical styles, instrumental interpretations and compositional genres. The review, a sort of festival, opens, as per tradition, on 18 October, the anniversary of the Decree of Foundation of the Scuola.

The concerts take place at the Teatro Verdi at 9 p.m.

The Scuola Normale Superiore is an institution founded in Pisa in 1813 on the model of the Napoleonic École normale supérieure in Paris. The seat is in Piazza dei Cavalieri and, following an annual national competition, it admits students and advanced students in the literature and philosophy class and the mathematics, physics and science class free of charge to its courses. The postgraduate course, to be accessed after graduation, lasts 3 years and ends with a diploma equivalent to doctor of research.
