    I agree to the following rules of conduct during my participation in the Cremona International Music Academy in Cremona, Italy from July 11 to July 28, 2023:

    1. I will abide by the curfews set by the Academy and IMA, its Cremona representatives and staff of Cremona Academy. Most evening concerts begin at 9:00 p.m. and attendance is mandatory. The curfew will be set at the student meeting following each concert and will usually be 30 minutes after the end of the concert. If no curfew is stated, all students must be in their rooms by 11:30 p.m. This curfew applies to ALL minor participants (under 18) living in the Academy hotel accommodations. We strongly encourage ALL students to abide by these curfews. The Academy schedule will be intense and require your full focus.

    2. If I am under the age of 18, I will follow the daily schedule of accompanied walks between the buildings used by the Academy. These include all location of the Academy, including the Istituto Monteverdi, the Chamber of Commerce, the Department of Musicology, Cremona Hotels, and various concert venues in Cremona and Crema. Same rules are applied for sightseeing tours and excursions. Schedules will be posted at each venue and a student counselor or administrative representative will gather students to walk from one building to the next. (Students under 18 may walk with someone 18 years old or older.) * Parents/Guardians, if you wish to allow your minor child to walk independently during daylight hours (8:00am-7:00pm), please indicate this with your signature below.

    3. If I am a minor (under the age of 18), I will not purchase or consume any alcoholic beverages including those purchased by older students. In addition, any student who purchases alcohol for underage participants will be expelled from the Academy. Anyone caught breaking this rule will be expelled from the Academy and will be sent home at student’s/families own expense immediately!

    4. No use or possession of drugs will be tolerated. Students of any age caught breaking this rule will be immediately expelled from the Academy and will be sent home at their own expense immediately!
