Festivals
The International Academy of Arts has organized a recurring festival since 1991, usually taking place during the summer vacation. Until 2006,
these consisted of masterclasses and/or workshops. The first edition of the International Solo Violin Competition took place in 2008 and became part of the Summer Festival in
2010. In 2017, the International Young Talent Music Competition was created as a standalone event until it was incorporated into the Summer Festival in 2019. Love²Arts
has handled the practical side of the organization since 2006.
Current edition
We are prepairing the next edition of the Summer Festival. Stay tuned for more.
