Program: At the beginning of the lessons, the teacher will agree on the transcription, to be carried out with a guided work in class, of two pieces (one for solo instrument to be transcribed for chamber ensemble and the other for chamber ensemble to be reduced for solo instrument) that are of general interest to the group of attending students.
Verification: At the end of the scheduled teaching hours, the teacher will express the judgment of suitability based on the verification, for each student, of the attendance, of the performance of the theoretical and/or practical work, both collective and individual, of the actual achievement of the set educational objectives.
All active collective or group subjects included in the curricular plans of the Two-Year Regulations of all Schools can also be chosen.
