UMBRIAN SERENADES is a unique CHORAL and CULTURAL program that brings together passionate singers, amateurs and professionals alike, who seek opportunities to perform exquisite a cappella repertoire spanning from the 16th to the 21st centuries, under JOSEPH FLUMMERFELT, Musical America's 2004 Conductor of the Year, in art-filled venues throughout the breathtaking region of UMBRIA.  These "Serenaders" and their travel companions also "taste" and "savor" what the GREEN HEART OF ITALY offers culturally, be it art, history, olive oil, local foods and wines.

A delighted opportunity to be immersed in the Italian language and to experience firsthand the vibrancy and colors of Umbrian culture with the delicate flavours of its gastronomic traditions. Embark on an unforgettable journey of Antonella's region living experiences money cannot buy and memories you will treasure forever.
