General Information
Introduction
We are pleased to announce a new year of the international piano program, designed for a limited number of high-level pianists who wish to perfect their art.
This is a unique program that offers the opportunity of working closely with some of the world's top artist-teachers. The program is organized in collaboration with the École Normale de Musique "Alfred Cortot", the Palm Beach Atlantic University, the Fundación Sinfonía, the Conservatory of Funchal, Madeira, and University of Ottawa, Canada.
Course of study will take mainly place at two locations: the École Normale de Musique in Paris - the historical and legendary school which Alfred Cortot founded - and the Fondation Bell'Arte in Braine l'Alleud-Brussels, Belgium.
In addition, one session will be held at the Palm Beach Atlantic University and one at the Conservatory of Funchal.
The purpose of this unique program is to provide participants with the benefits of artistic coaching and career guidance from prestigious artist-teachers who represent diverse piano traditions. Students awarded the International Artist Certificate will be presented in several concert organisations in France, Belgium, USA, Spain, and Italy.
Following the final examinations, Nelson Delle-Vigne Fabbri and Philippe Entremont, will analyse the opportunity for select students to participate to the recording of a CD.
The ICPA is the European equivalent to the highest preparation available for someone seeking to start an important solo career.
An ICPA certificate "stamp of approval" indicates to professional agents, impresarios and managers that the artist is ready to perform in professional arenas.

Description of the course
The International Certificate for Piano Artists sessions starts at the end of September and finishes in May During that period the participant will have various intensive sessions of instruction, which include a week-long session at the Palm Beach Atlantic University, sessions in Paris, Brussels, Madeira... The program's faculty consists of artist/teachers.
During the school year, the participant can consult, at any time, Professor Nelson Delle-Vigne Fabbri, the founder and general coordinator of the International Artist Certificate Program as well as a piano teacher at the École Normale de Musique de Paris "Alfred Cortot."
At the end of the year, an evaluation jury will be organized to determine the progress of the student during the year of study. The participation to this final audition isn't automatic. The young pianist is expected to have reached a certain artistic level. He also must have attended a minimum of 80 % of the sessions during the academic year, in order to present his/her works at the evaluation jury. During the jury, the student will present works he/she prepared during the sessions.
The final jury will be at the end of June or beginning of July. The compulsory work will be known at least 5 weeks before the final jury.

Admission
Participation in the International Certificate Sessions is highly competitive. A limited number of students from around the world are chosen for the program each year. These students are admitted to a special nine month course during which they are coached by a team of distinguished artists/teachers. In addition to the program's artist faculty, select world-renowned artists will be invited as special guest professors.
