J.U.S.I.
Founded in 2005, JUSI is coordinated and supported by the Graubünden Association of Music and Singing Schools (VSMG).
Claudio Barberi, a pianist and orchestra conductor working primarily in the Engadin and Italy, serves as its artistic director.
Activities
The orchestra project welcomes advanced musicians aged 14 to 24.
Participants take part in a week of orchestra music in Brigels/Breil, GR, with a rehearsal weekend in Chur and two final concerts in Thusis and Chur.
The project offers young musicians from Graubünden the chance to gain experience in an orchestra and breathe in a symphonic atmosphere.
In addition to working on music, participants will have ample opportunity to socialise. JUSI offers young people a unique chance to meet and make friends with peers from the three language areas of the Canton, and from other Cantons as well.
The Aim
JUSI offers young musicians from Graubünden the chance to play in a larger orchestra.
