Hans Werner Henze founded the Cantiere Internazionale d'Arte in Montepulciano, Tuscany, in 1976. Productions of concerts and theatre are prepared in the summer school and then played at the festival. Participants do not receive fees, but food and accommodation.[1] Among the venues is the historic Teatro Poliziano .
Since November 2005 the workshop has been organised by the Fondazione Cantiere Internazionale d'Arte di Montepulciano, run by the town, and by the Province of Siena. Roland Böer became musical director in 2009, and was artistic director from 2015 to 2020.[2][1] Vincent Monteil followed as the artistic director.
