In 2015 the great pianist Aldo Ciccolini founded an Academy in Trani set up as a Foundation by the Soldano-Falco family, tied to the Maestro by a long, personal and professional relationship (annex endorsement).

The main objective of the European Arts Academy “Aldo Ciccolini“ is the training of musicians of international profile by well renowned teachers.

The Academy also promotes concerts for its top talents and organizes high standard music events.

The Academy, despite having its headquarters in Trani, has an international goal as Maestro Ciccolini himself had.

The Academy has a solid base of national and international partnerships, with the aim of promoting the development of artists and offering a variety of artistic expressivity in synergy with musicians from different realities.

The Academy wants to contribute to the spreading of Italian music culture worldwide.
