Just underneath Italy lies the country of Malta, a place that can also boast prehistoric ruins, beaches and Renaissance art. Time is suspended in hilltop archaeologic sites and perfectly preserved palazzos, but the music scene pushes ever forward with international festivals and thriving orchestral and operatic cultures. Pair Malta with a trip to Italy to explore one more unique side of the famous Greco-Roman culture and experience firsthand the richness of the Maltese fine and performing arts.

Classical Movements has been planning tours to Mediterranean countries since 1995. Successful tours have been planned for the Yale Institute of Sacred Music with the Juilliard School, Morgan State University Choir, University of Kentucky Women’s Choir, Children’s Chorus of Washington, Smith College, Yale Glee Club, Yale Symphony Orchestra, Lexington Singers, Pacific Boychoir and Choral Arts Society of Washington among many others.
