First held in 2009, this very special Recording Boot Camp is held in a small boutique studio built into the private early 17th century Villa Prosdocimi (originally the country villa of Lord Bissara of Vicenza) outside of Venice in the Veneto region of North Italy. Although the course material covers all of the same topics as the Los Angeles based Recording Boot Camp, the “Italian Villa Boot Camp” is designed to be an all-encompassing recording holiday: A complete immersion in the craft of recording as well as Italian food, wine, and culture.

I still can’t believe this really happened to me, so nice was everything, the amazing workshop, the awesome location, the great food, not to mention the great dinners and last, but not least, the great people I met who will live in my Heart forever ! Thank you so much , Ronan! – Markus, Hamburg Germany

In addition to 6 days of recording workshops we dive into Italian wine and home-cooked Italian meals (lunch prepared by the Prosdocimi family, who has called the villa home for over 300 years). Of course, this being North Italy there will also be coffee, Limoncello and Grappa. Most nights the group goes out to try local trattorias.

 

Will never forget the this week, was an awesome experience!” -Stephan, Switzerland

The Workshops are open to students from around the world, but all instruction will be in English. Class size is limited to only 5 students.

Please contact us with any questions and see the bottom of the page for all the fine print.

The studio is truly a little piece of paradise on earth, but I never realized you would have to recover from visiting paradise 🙂 Reno D. – The Netherlands

 

This video is from 7 years ago. Its says all food is included, but the new price (which is $200 lower now) included only lunch. Students often go to Venice after the boot camp and Ronan likes to come along, but it is not an official part of the program.

$1350USD. This includes the workshop and homemade lunches at the villa (with wine of course).

A range of affordable accommodations are available in the village (starting around 30 Euros per night; contact us for more details.

The fine print about the Italy Recording Boot Camp

Local accommodations will be the responsibility of the students, but our local host will help with any logistics. One of the local hotels has discounts for multiple guests in one room. If you would be interested in sharing a room with another student please let us know and we will try and help arrange it.

This Recording Boot Camp will sell out. To reserve a spot in the class a 50% deposit is required. Those paying in non-US currency, the deposit will be calculated based on the exchange rate at the time the deposit is paid. We accept deposits via check, bank transfer/wire and Paypal (+3%) Final payment is required before or on the first day of the workshop (payable in US Dollars or Euro equivalent). Students that wish to pay the full amount upon registration will receive a $100 discount.

The Recording Boot Camp is designed for advanced beginner to intermediate students. Before registering, prospective students must be approved by Ronan after an interview via phone, Skype or email.

In order to keep the costs down, the transportation to various restaurants and outings will not be glamorous. Think piling into cars and SUVs instead of limos. The food, wine, locations and friendships, on the other hand, will be amazing.

Much of the dining is family style North Italian food, which can be heavy on meats, diary and seafood. Vegetarians/Vegans are more than welcome to attend and we would make sure you enjoy some great food as well. Please let us know about any dietary restriction in advance. We will make sure you have great food as well.

For those coming from outside the E.U. please make sure that you check to see if you require a passport or visa to enter Italy.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_gmaps link=”#E-8_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” title=”Where is the Villa Located?
