Those programs are open to the public free of charge. Di Bonaventura has performed in 27 countries and was featured in the Great Performances Series at New York's Lincoln Center. In May 1992, he was awarded the Metcalf Cup and Prize for Excellence, Boston University's highest award for excellence in teaching.

Di Bonaventura is the founder of the Piano Institute at Colby, a two-week workshop for pianists offering private lessons, master classes and guest lectures as well as the opportunity to perform in public recitals. Di Bonaventura has directed the Institute since it was established in 1979.
