The master class for trumpeters - held by Paolo Paravagna on 20 April 2008 at Oriago di Mira (Venice) and sponsored by ANBIMA (the Italian Association of Independent Bands) - met with great success.
Mr. Paravagna is leading trumpet at the Orchestre National du Capitole de Toulouse and prize-winner in a number of international contests.
The one-day course was attended by the entire "brass" section of the Orchestra and by various players from local bands.
Subjects included: sound placement and sound emission, choice of repertoire for a concert, history of the trumpet, how to join an orchestra.
