Southampton Arts Festival

 

The Southampton Arts festival is an international music festival featuring today’s leading musicians and promising young students. It is the festival’s goal to combine world-class performances with an extensive learning program, creating an environment ideal for sharing ideas and talents. The festival will offer a two-week program, including private and chamber music lessons, supervised practice time, chamber music concerts, as well as master classes and performances by distinguished faculty and guest artists.

 

Our international faculty and artists will include members of such musical institutions and orchestras as The New York Philharmonic, The Boston Symphony, The Cincinnati Symphony, Orchestre de la Suisse Romande in Geneva, Juilliard School, Peabody Conservatory, Manhattan School of music, Mannes College, University of North Carolina, and Michigan State University, among others. (Please see our faculty and guest-artist list for names, references and biographies.)

 

Students will have an opportunity to perform in student concerts and participate in open-to-the-public master classes.

 

The program will take place in Southampton, one of the most breathtaking places on the Atlantic shore. Students will have the opportunity to balance an intensive practice and learning schedule with the Hamptons’ rich cultural life, while enjoying its famous beaches and seacoast.

 

Both faculty and student concerts will take place at the beautiful Southampton Cultural Center and the famous Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. In addition to extensive training, the festival will provide performance experience and an excellent opportunity for young musicians to launch their careers.

 

This year’s festival participants include students from Yale University, Manhattan School of Music, New England Conservatory, Michigan State University, University of Chicago, University of Michigan, Duke University, Peabody Conservatory, Cleveland Institute of Music, and London Guildhall University. Some participating students are already winners of international competitions.

 

The festival will also feature The International Chamber Soloists as the String Orchestra in Residence.

 

In addition to offering instruction to professional college students, we will be enhancing the Hamptons family experience by presenting multidisciplinary classes and workshops for children.
