Everybody Calls Me Giorgio: International Conference
From September 10 to 12, 2026, scholars from around the world will gather at the Free University of Bolzano. They aim to examine the work of South Tyrolean music pioneer Giorgio Moroder and his lasting influence on music, media, and culture. Through its innovative focus on “Electronic Music Producing,” the Pop Academy’s curriculum also builds on Moroder’s pioneering work in the field of Eurodisco in the 1970s.
