A great number of the world’s most talented musicians have graced the halls of the Accademia Chigiana. They were personally invited by Conte Chigi Saracini, and paid tribute to him through their dedications. They performed, gave masterclasses, and taught courses, shaping the next generation of great artists through their mentorship.
Friends of Chigiana helps to sustain this rich history by cultivating the benefactors of our time who can help to insure that the tradition of excellence continues at the Accademia Chigiana.
