Preparatory and mentoring programmes

Mantinea Institute provides emerging talent with the highest quality preparatory, mentorship, and coaching programmes for art and music study. Our courses enable artists worldwide to take full advantage of the competitive academic opportunities offered by the conservatories of music and fine art academies in Italy and selected European countries.

Why focus on Italy?

Pursuing a fine arts or music career at an Italian academy or conservatory offers distinct advantages due to Italy’s deep artistic heritage. The cradle of the Renaissance and home to baroque, classical, and nineteenth-century music and arts, Italy boasts centuries-old traditions and institutions that have shaped the global landscape of fine arts and music.

Studying in Italian and with Italian tutors allows deeper engagement with active musicians and artists, choirs, orchestras, singers, painters, sculptors, and designers offering unparalleled access to the language of art, aesthetics, and musical interpretation. The immersive experience of the Italian art-filled environment, including world-class concert-halls, operas, galleries, museums, and libraries, provides both inspiration and contextual relevance.

Benefits

Our personalised programme, conducted under the supervision of active artists, conservatory and art academy tutors, university faculty and language instructors with expertise in teaching foreigners coming from various linguistic and cultural backgrounds, offers amazing exposure to the high artistic, cultural, theoretical, and linguistic context. 

Throughout Mantinea Institute’s in situ programmes students enjoy opportunities to perform, attend consultations with prominent researchers and artists, conduct study tours of archives, libraries, art collections, and much more.

Thanks to the this multimodal exposure and engagement in the local artistic and musical activities, concerts, art-exhibitions, conferences, and social events, study at Mantinea Institute is effective, motivating, and enjoyable. 

Our alumni successfully enrol at Italian conservatories and art academies and are able – thanks to the preparation acquired with us – to capitalise on the courses that forge their future music and art careers.
