All sites are ideally located in the beautiful old city of Geneva.
In addition of the 3 professors, every year a guest of honour is invited to give 2 days of masterclasses.
Three collaborative pianists will be available for the lessons when required.

Every afternoon, students get to collaborate with the faculty in chamber music. Chamber groups are formed by the academy, including at least one faculty member in each group. Students are welcome to suggest repertoire.
