Call for proposals “New Languages for F.P Tosti”

Saint Louis College of Music is issuing a nationwide call for orchestra musicians for the following instruments: male or female voice, guitar, bass or double bass, piano, trumpet, alto sax and tenor sax, drums

The call for proposals is aimed at the realization of a project resulting from the collaboration of two institutions recognized by their respective ministries: the Istituto Nazionale Tostiano based in Ortona (CH) and the Saint Louis College of Music in Rome.

The project aims, through transcriptions, arrangements and performances, to offer audiences a different listening to some of the melodies composed by the famous musician Francesco Paolo Tosti. An album will also be produced and presented on December 17 at a prestigious concert in the city of Ortona.
