In 2009, two concerts were held in schools in Umbria in which pianist and Artistic Director of the Festival, Angela Hewitt, played for school children, and participated in a discussion on the music played led by Giovanni Costantini. The first one was held in Magione on October 22, 2009, and the following day a similar event took place at the Istituto Tecnico Commerciale Statale Aldo Capitini - Vittorio Emanuele II in Perugia.
In Canada on November 13, 2009, flautist Andrea Oliva (guest artist of the festival in 2008 and 2009) gave a masterclass at the University of Toronto. The masterclass was hosted by the Canadian Friends of the Trasimeno Music Festival in collaboration with the Department of Music. Angela Hewitt gave a similar class on February 11, 2010.
