One of the most captivating phenomena of Venice are the musicians and artists which it produced. Vivaldi, Albinoni, Monteverdi, and Galuppi as well as Tintoretto, Carpaccio, Tiziano, Tiepolo, Canaletto, and Guardi, all filled Venice with spectacular creations for eyes and ears to behold. Admire the masterpieces of painters in their original place or in the city museums. Along with visits to works found in churches, your adventure can include stops at the Quadreria of the Correr Museum, or to the Academia of Fine Arts. In this tour, you'll learn the characteristics of lavish Venetian Style. You can suggest your favorite artist and we'll help you to see his most fascinating works, visiting churches or buildings where you can still find the atmosphere of a humanistic Studio, like in the School of San Giorgio dei Greci, or that of a Magnificent Renaissance Complex like the School of San Rocco. If you like music, you are in for a big treat. You will understand why Venetian music developed unique features which made it different from any other Italian and European school. Visit the Conservatory Benedetto Marcello, Vivaldi's Church of the Pieta, the Church of the Ospedaletto, passing through the area of La Fenice Theater and by the houses where the opera composer Cimarosa and the great Mozart lived. The most passionate about ancient music may also pay a visit to the Levi Foundation, the most relevant archive of Ancient Music in Venice, to get information about their favorite studies. Meet an artisan who builds ancient Venetian harpsichords and visit the music shop of Cristiano Nalesso specialized in classical Venetian renaissance, pre-baroque and baroque music and Opera, where you can find rare first recordings. Your tour would not be complete without a sampling of the finest concerts available during your stay, such as an evening concert in S. Rocco, or, depending on the season, opera at the Pala Fenice.

The Natural Side

Go beyond Venice to the other islands of the lagoon. Discover the bigger picture of Venice on a Nature "Float" in the lagoon. You'll learn about the delicate ecology of the lagoon, flowers, plants, birds and fish. In this course, you will go to St. Erasmo, Le Vignole, and Torcello - favorite islands for feasts and pleasures of noblemen in a by-gone era, now a relevant natural area, preserving the typical Mediterranean mark.

Torcello is of notable interest, not only for the fabulous nature which flourishes today, but also for the historical relevance of the island as the first seat of the Venetian government 1500 years ago. You will learn about the Basilica which contains some of the oldest mosaics in the world, and the fascinating archaeological museum which reminds us how long the history of Venice really is.
