Using authentic material taken from Italian radio and television broadcasts, this series of listening practice material is based on the examination requirements of the University of Siena (CILS 3, 2 or 4) and the University of Perugia (CELI 3, 4 or 5) but is equally appropriate as preparation material for other Italian language examinations in listening.

Each textbook offers a series of comprehension exercises based on the audio-recordings, which themselves contain over 40 different, yet authentic, voices.
