MUSIC INSTITUTE

Empowering the next generation of musicians.

A welcoming community for young international musicians to connect, learn from sought-after pedagogues, and showcase their artistry in professional concerts.

Music Camp Programs

The Festival offers two performance-intensive music camps, where students receive individual lessons, chamber music coachings, masterclasses with guest artists, and several elective workshops. At its core, the Festival music camps provide rising musicians with the opportunity to learn from sought-after pedagogues and artists, collaborate and meet people from all over the world driven by the same goals, and showcase their artistry on stage in professional concerts.
