Divertimento Ensemble
Conductors selected from the Conducting Course for the repertoire for ensemble from the early twentieth century to the present.

Since the second half of the last century, composers from all over the world have devoted increasing attention to music for ensemble, creating a vast repertoire for every type of instrumental formation.
The music for ensemble represents today a very high percentage of contemporary production. For many years Divertimento Ensemble has dedicated a part of its activity to the training of young conductors who wish to approach this increasingly vast repertoire.
The Course of Orchestral Conduction for the repertoire for ensemble from the early twentieth century to the present reached in 2021 its eighteenth edition, for eleven years it has been based in Moncalvo and for the first time it takes place in collaboration with the Orsolina28 Foundation, in its prestigious new location.

Both concerts will also be broadcast on Divertimento Ensemble Digital Stage web TV.
