General Information

Many students from all over the world get the opportunity to play with an orchestra as well as participate in lessons, master classes, play in marathon recitals and in chamber music events and produce an opera. The concerts take place in Basilica di San Pietro, which is famous for its extraordinary acoustics.[1]


"One of the things that makes it special is that it’s a very rare thing for a young performer to play a concerto with an orchestra. That was the main idea of the festival – get an orchestra, get students to play"
