Since 2003 Master-Classes have been organised in Ambronay.
- Between 2003 and 2005 a cycle of three internships based on Monteverdi were proposed by Gabriel Garrido: the participants have thus been able to work on the following pieces: the Selva Morale e Spirituale, the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth books of the Madrigals and Orfeo.These training periods were also conducted with Rosa Dominguez (voice), Adriana Fernandez (voice), Eduardo Eguez (lute), Leonardo Garcia Alarcon (harpsichord), Olivia Centurion (violin), Andrea De Carlo (viola de gambe) and Bruna Gondoni (dance).
- During the past three years we have also welcomed Dominique Vellard for training periods centred on early "monodique" repertories, the Cantigas of Santa Maria and the songs of Troubadours and the Sephardic repertories of the Middle Ages. These educational sequences were also directed by Françoise Atlan (voice), Keyvan Chemirani (percussion) Sami Sadak (research) and Pierre Bec (research).
- Christophe Rousset has directed two master-classes (in 2004 and 2005) on the subject of the French "Petit Motet" and the "Leçons de Ténèbres". He was accompanied by Jérôme Correas (harpsichord, voice), Isabelle Poulenard (voice), Jean Duron (research) and Alexis Meunier (research).
- In 2005, Jérôme Correas offered a training programme concerning sacred music in Naples in the eighteenth century, including the works of Porpora, Pergolesi and Hasse. This programme was also directed by Violaine Cochard (harpsichord) and Patrick Barbier (musicologist).
