Pellegrini, awarded several prizes in contests like the Palestrina in Brazil or the Guitar Festival in Havana, held exchanges with professors and students about methods to study and teach how to play that string instrument.
 

The artist, who has been visiting the center since 2009, highlighted the importance of personal study for several hours a day, and of training in classical pieces of national and international repertoires.
 

In statements to ACN, he said that artistic teaching in Cuba is exceptional, since the necessary conditions and resources for this type of study are available.
 

He championed the promotion of classical music in radio and television, in order to spread this genre and increase audience.
 

As part of his tour, the artist gave keynote lectures at vocational schools in Las Tunas and Santa Clara, and he will soon do the same in Pinar del Rio.
