Musical Perspectives

The Burch Field Research Seminar is a 14-week program that will give students the opportunity to develop their musical performance skills and experience cultural activities in two of the most exciting metropolitan centers in Europe: London, England and Florence, Italy. The seminar will offer a complete range of musical experiences, both for performers and students of music history, and the consumer of serious art music. Small ensembles (chamber music) in intimate settings, solo performances and recitals, larger orchestra repertoire heard live, and dramatic opera settings – all at world-class level – will be available to augment and enhance the study and understanding of musical performance, composition and history.
