A new season is coming⚡️

Looking back at 2025/2026 means revisiting a journey shaped by intensity, growth and performance, where Mascarade Opera and NGF artists moved between rehearsal rooms and the stage, turning training into real artistic experience.

Every moment captured here carries the same energy:
anticipation, focus, transformation.
The new season is about to begin and it already feels alive.

Looking back at NGF means seeing a journey in constant movement.

From its early steps to today, the New Generation Foundation has grown through artists, programmes and performances that continue to evolve year after year.
What has remained unchanged is the vision: supporting young talent and creating real pathways from training to the stage.
These images tell a story of transformation, growth and continuity… all rooted in Florence.

From Florence to the world, and from the world back to Florence 🤍

In the heart of the city, voices, stories and perspectives come together to create something shared: where tradition meets new generations and individuality becomes part of a collective vision.

A place where the spirit of Florence inspires an international artistic community.

Vox Medicea is bringing Florence’s forgotten choral tradition back to life.

10/08/2026

At the heart of the New Generation Foundation is a simple vision: to support and develop the next generation of artists.

Through training, performance and research, NGF creates pathways where young musicians can grow into professional artists: connecting education with the stage, and tradition with the present.

From Mascarade Opera to the Festival to Vox Medicea, each project is part of the same mission: to nurture talent and bring music into life.

A moment we return to again and again.
Showcase 2026 brought together the new generation of opera through Mascarade Opera: a space where training becomes performance, and performance becomes transformation.

A night that still feels alive.

Everything begins in Florence.

The New Generation Foundation is inspired by the Italian Renaissance, a time when art, music and human creativity were deeply connected and constantly evolving. That same spirit continues today, shaping a living dialogue between past and present through the rediscovery and performance of music on stage.

A beautiful closing concert of the Florence Choral Course 🕊️

The week concluded at the Oratorio di San Filippo Neri with Ecce Beatam Lucem, featuring Striggio’s monumental 40-part motet at its centre, alongside a programme of Italian Renaissance choral works.

Young singers and instrumentalists from around the world came together after an intensive week of study, rehearsal, and performance in Florence.

Now in its 5th anniversary year, the Florence Choral Course is the only course in the world dedicated entirely to the study and performance of Italian Renaissance choral music, run by Vox Medicea in association with ECSE ✨

Thank you to all the performers and audience members who made the final concert such a memorable occasion!

What does it mean to conduct a choir in the Pazzi Chapel?

It means engaging with a space where architecture, history, and music have been in dialogue for centuries.

We spoke with Mark Spyropoulos, founder and Music Director of Vox Medicea and the Florence Choral Course, following the concert in which the students performed in one of the masterpieces of the Florentine Renaissance.

The Florence Choral Course is organized by Vox Medicea in collaboration with The English Cornett & Sackbut Ensemble - ECSE and supported by New Generation Foundation.

The programme is designed to train the next generation of choral singers while exploring and bringing to life the rich choral heritage of the Renaissance.

✨ Il suono della Ca****la dei Pazzi ✨

Gli studenti del Florence Choral Course hanno riempito di musica la magnifica Ca****la dei Pazzi in Santa Croce, cantando in uno degli spazi rinascimentali più straordinari di Firenze.

Il Florence Choral Course è una delle iniziative educative di Vox Medicea, sostenuta dalla The New Generation Foundation per formare la prossima generazione di coristi, esplorando e facendo rivivere il ricco patrimonio corale del Rinascimento.

Così, musica e architettura si sono incontrate ancora una volta in questo luogo unico, grazie a Vox Medicea e all’Opera di Santa Croce.

✨ The Sound of the Pazzi Chapel ✨

The students of the Florence Choral Course filled the magnificent Pazzi Chapel at Santa Croce with music, singing in one of Florence’s most extraordinary Renaissance spaces.

The Florence Choral Course is one of Vox Medicea’s educational initiatives, supported by The New Generation Foundation, to train the next generation of choristers while exploring and bringing to life the rich choral heritage of the Renaissance.

Once again, music and architecture came together in this unique setting, thanks to Vox Medicea and the Opera di Santa Croce.
