Dive into the World of Sound: Join the Premiere Sound Sommelier Course by Slow Sound Academy

In an era where the appreciation for fine sound is burgeoning, the Slow Sound Academy is thrilled to announce an unparalleled journey into the artistry of sound with the launch of its inaugural Sound Sommelier Course. This groundbreaking initiative is not just a course; it’s an expedition into the depths of auditory experience, tailored for musicians, audio aficionados, sound engineers, and anyone with a passion for the sonic world.

Why Sound Sommelier?

The concept of a Sound Sommelier is as intriguing as it is novel. Much like a wine sommelier, who discerns the subtle notes and flavors in a glass of wine, a Sound Sommelier is trained to identify and appreciate the nuances in different soundscapes. This course is designed to refine your auditory palette, enhance your listening skills, and deepen your understanding of sound’s profound impact on our lives.

Meet the Visionaries and Experts

The Slow Sound Academy is not just about learning; it’s about connecting with the pioneers of the Slow Sound Movement and engaging with a faculty that reads like a who’s who of the music and sound world. Participants will have the rare opportunity to meet:

• Igor Fiorini, a multifaceted genius whose expertise spans composing, sound directing, and consulting for top-tier audio product companies. Fiorini’s work has graced stages and festivals worldwide, including the prestigious Rossini Opera Festival and the Abu Dhabi Music and Arts Festival.
• Luciano Pelosi, whose illustrious career has seen him at the helm of the Vatican’s organ and leading the choir at the Teatro dell’Opera di Roma. His deep understanding of composition and sound dynamics makes him a revered figure in the classical music scene.
• Sandro Cappelletto, a name synonymous with music history and storytelling. As a writer and music historian, Cappelletto has crafted narratives for radio and television, bringing the world of sound to life for audiences everywhere.
• Giacomo de Caterini, whose expertise in sound engineering and production has shaped the auditory experiences at the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia. His work in educating the next generation of sound engineers bridges the gap between tradition and innovation.
• Massimiliano Viola, a philosopher and writer, brings a unique perspective to the course, exploring the theoretical underpinnings of sound and its impact on human cognition and emotion.
