The Kutztown University Summer Music Festival will return from Saturday, June 28, to Saturday, July 5. Talented students from around the world join forces for a one-week fully immersive musical experience, working with the festival’s renowned roster of devoted musicians and pedagogues.

Concerts and workshops are free and open to the public. The full schedule can be found online.

The Summer Music Festival offers one week of intensive study to ambitious high school and college-age musicians, including daily private lessons and chamber music coaching. It is open to piano, strings, winds, and percussion, with faculty from the Juilliard School, the Manhattan School of Music, the University of Macedonia in Greece, the University of Chile, Kutztown University, the New York City Ballet Orchestra, and other prestigious institutions.

Participants will have the opportunity to work on solo repertoire, learn and perform works from the core chamber music literature, and receive instruction on audition preparation. In addition to the intensive chamber music experience, students will have the opportunity to participate in a series of intriguing and informative seminars and workshops on a variety of musical topics, including the concerto competition, sponsored by the Festival and the University of Macedonia in Greece.

Founded in 2010 by pianist Maria Asteriadou, the Kutztown University Summer Music Festival features an intensive and comprehensive approach to learning the core chamber music repertoire for piano, strings, winds, and percussion. The festival’s mission is to provide opportunities that go far beyond the traditional summer music camp experience, creating a stimulating environment for musical and personal growth through an international exchange of talent and ideas.

Nurturing the love of great music and developing the young artists of the future, KU’s Summer Music Festival allows emerging musicians to experience the Art of Chamber Music with internationally acclaimed artists.
