The Thinking Watermill Society, within the project “Music brings people together”, in 2022 provides a scholarship of 2,000 EUR that will be assigned to the Accademia Musicale Chigiana di Siena, Italy, to allow a female or a male pupil born and resident in a State of the African Continent, to bear the costs of the courses and living expenses in Siena for the period of the lessons. The female or male pupil will be chosen following a selection of all the young people who have passed the admission tests in order to attend the summer master classes of the Accademia Musicale Chigiana di Siena. The purpose of the initiative is to allow the pupil to improve in musical disciplines, allowing him to attend the master classes of the Accademia Chigiana, with the great masters of today.
The indivisible scholarship will be awarded upon judgement of a Committee of the Accademia Chigiana, which will also include a representative of The Thinking Watermill Society.
The name of the female or male pupil to whom the scholarship will be awarded will be announced by the Accademia Chigiana at the end of the admission tests.
Although all the courses will be held in English, the pupil awarded with the scholarship will be the beneficiary of an on-line course of Italian language with the Società Dante Alighieri, freely provided by The Thinking Watermill Society.
