AMSTERDAM TO BERGEN MUSIC IN NORTHERN EUROPE MAY 10-26, 2019 TOUR LEADER: ROBERT GAY
Overview Academy Travel is proud to announce a 17-day music tour exploring Amsterdam, Hamburg, Copenhagen, Oslo and the beautiful landscapes of Norway’s fjords around Bergen. Nine fine performances take place in some of the most stunning venues in Europe – modern concert halls and opera houses which exhibit the very best in Dutch, German and Scandinavian design. As always, the itinerary is based on excellent performances including familiar repertoire with three operas by Puccini and one by Rossini, two orchestral concerts by the Netherlands Philharmonic Orchestra and the NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra, plus a recital by master pianist Grigory Sokolov. The performance program, is complemented by visits to leading galleries, such as Amsterdam’s Rijksmuseum and the Kunsthalle in Hamburg, visits to several of the historic cities of the Hanseatic League, and the sublime scenery of Norway. Musical history, background talks on performances, contemporary architecture – from the Elbphilharmonie, to Renzo Piano’s Astrup Fearnley Museum in Oslo and Henning Larsen’s Copenhagen Opera House – and fine dining round out the program. Centrally located four-star hotels, many meals, tipping and best-available tickets to performances are all included. Touring is by coach, on foot and by boat with museum and art gallery visits. The long days will contribute to this unique travel experience.
Your tour leader For over 30 years, Robert Gay has presented music history courses for the Centre for Continuing Education at the University of Sydney. Over the same period he has designed and escorted more than 80 musical and cultural tours to Europe and America.
On tour, Robert will provide a thorough introduction to the performances you see, with detailed pre-performance talks and post-performance reviews. Robert’s approach to music is multi-faceted. First and foremost, he links the music to the biographical, historical
and social context in which it was created. Secondly, he explains in plain language technical aspects of the music – how the composer communicates through sound. Finally, as a trained singer who attends dozens of performances each year, he offers great insight into the qualities of the performances you see on tour. Robert’s enthusiasm is infectious, and his skills as a music educator and tour leader are exceptional. Since 2010, he has led tours exclusively for Academy Travel.
“Robert Gay went out of his way to look after the individual needs of group members. A well-constructed itinerary.” Feedback from Robert Gay’s Berlin to Vienna music tour, December 2016.

If you are more than 80 years old, or have restricted mobility, it is highly likely that you will find this itinerary challenging.

Weather on Tour The weather in northern Europe in May is generally mild and pleasant. Expect daytime temperatures to range between 18-24 degrees. Evenings may become cooler, requiring a warmer jacket and scarf. There is a possibility of some rainfall at all five of our destinations, so a weather-proof jacket and umbrella are recommended.
About Academy TravelEach year Academy Travel organises around 60 journeys to Europe, the Mediterranean, Asia and the Americas, each focusing on a distinctive historical, artistic or cultural theme. The aim of every Academy Travel journey is to combine the pleasures of independent travel with the benefits and shared enjoyment of a group. Academy Travel is an Australian-owned travel company, founded in 2004. The company’s staff includes both academic experts and travel professionals with over two decades’ industry experience. We also have our own office in Rome which organises our tours in Western Europe. This means we have direct control over the selection of hotels, restaurants, coaches and local guides, guaranteeing superior quality.
Years of experienceAcademy Travel was founded in 2004 by a team with decades of prior experience in small group travel. On average, our tour leaders have over 11 years’ experience, some with 25 or more years. To ensure quality, we have our own office in Rome, Italy and a network of trusted suppliers around the world.
Great itinerariesAcademy Travel works hard to create itineraries that provide a balanced experience – walking tours, museum and gallery visits, live performances, city and countryside. We’re proud to be constantly innovating, from opening up new destinations, creating tours around festivals and special exhibitions, to providing unrivalled depth in our residential tours.
Like-minded groupsOver the years we’ve been in operation, we’ve developed a loyal band of Academy Travellers, some of whom have travelled with us more than 10 times. They say the small groups (maximum 20, average 17) and distinct themes of our tours attract like-minded travellers and create a relaxed, convivial atmosphere.
Long staysFeedback from our clients consistently tells us that creating itineraries with three and four-night stops, or even longer, is far more appealing that rushing from place to place. Wherever possible, we plan our tours around a limited number of stops, making your travels more relaxed and more meaningful.
Special EventsA private viewing of the Sistine Chapel? Tickets to a sold-out concert by the Berlin Philharmonic? A world-famous art fair? Access to private homes and gardens? Behind-the-scenes visits? Many of our tours feature access to places and events that are usually not offered on most group tours.
Expert tour leadersWe work closely with a team of academically qualified and highly experienced tour leaders. They don’t just ‘rattle off the facts’ – they help us plan our itineraries and, on tour, freely share their deep knowledge and genuine passion. Most of our tour leaders are still teaching at an advanced level and many are still undertaking academic research.
