International Summer Workshop 2025

Registrations are open from 26 March and applications will be accepted subject to availability.

For the registration to be considered valid, it is necessary to pay € 20 pre-registration which, in case of acceptance, will be deducted from the total amount of the registration.

To register, you need to connect to the NettunoPa portal and follow the following procedure:

1. From the “Sorting” box choose “Seminars and Workshop”.
2. From “Select course” choose the instrument course.
3. On Course year specify “1” even if it is not the first time you attend the Siena Jazz Summer Workshops.
4. On “Student type” select one of the following options:
   • external candidate: registration for students/musicians;
   • external candidate from selected conservatories: enrolment for students from all Italian conservatories;
   • external candidate listener only: registration as a listener.

The process will be completed when the candidate receives a confirmation of registration.
Only applications received through the NettunoPa portal will be accepted.

During the application phase it will be necessary for students to provide audio material proving their instrumental skills. To this end, candidates may insert the links relating to the registrations in the Section called “Student Statements.”
It is suggested to provide links to videos on Youtube, Vimeo, Soundcloud, Wetransfer, or similar format, remembering that there must be 3 songs, possibly chosen from the following structures: Blues, Rhythm Changes, Standards, Modal Composition or other (the possibility of including an original song by the candidate is also contemplated).

Other attachments: please upload an identification document, scans of any qualifications, and posters and flyers of the concerts performed.

Candidates holding classical and/or jazz music diplomas can send:

• a copy of the diploma or equivalent certificate;
• certification of documented concert activity (concert posters, newspaper articles, or in their absence a self-certification of the musical activity carried out).

Those who do not have recognized academic qualifications can submit:

• certification of documented musical studies;
• certification of documented concert activity (concert posters, newspaper articles, or in their absence a self-certification of the musical activity carried out).

• ordinary course fee of € 1000 (€ 20 during registration, € 980 to confirm enrollment once accepted by the commission);
• quota corso per studenti SJU e Conservatori partner italiani ed esteri 700 € (20 € in fase di iscrizione, 680 € a conferma dell’iscrizione una volta accettati dalla commissione);
• listener course fee € 350.

Payment can be made through Pago PA within the Nettuno PA registration portal which will automatically generate the payment slip at the end of registration.

Sono previste delle borse di studio parziali per la cifra di 300,00 EUR ciascuna alle studentesse ed agli studenti che si iscrivano ai corsi di tromba, trombone (classe di tromba), sassofono, clarinetto (classe di sassofono), contrabbasso, basso elettrico (classe di contrabbasso), vibrafono (classe di pianoforte/batteria), e risultino ammesse/i a seguito della procedura di selezione.

Siena Jazz will evaluate the applications received and communicate the outcome to the candidates. Once the candidate receives a positive response to their application, they have 7 days to make the payment and confirm their registration.
It is important to emphasize that a positive admission outcome and payment confirmation do not automatically guarantee participation in the workshops; participation will only be confirmed upon receipt of a subsequent confirmation email.
The pre-registration fee of € 20 will not be refunded in case of a negative application outcome.
